- Abstract
- In this paper, a new method to fabricate a polymeric microbead is developed using the micro scale hydrodynamic phenomena and 'on-the-fly' photo-polymerization. The dimension of microbeads can be controlled by changing the relative flow rates without re-tooling. Biocatalysts are immobilized in the beads during the fabrication process and these functionalized beads are incorporated inside the microchannel for the continuous detection of glucose-enzyme reaction.
