title: A thermoresponsive fluorogenic conjugated polymer for a temperature sensor in microfluidic devices.
abstract: A new, microfluidic temperature sensor system, based on a thermoresponsive conjugated polymer supramolecule, has been developed. By generating blue-phase polydiacetylene (PDA) sensor droplets using hydrodynamic instability, we were able to monitor the variation of fluorescent intensity of the droplets with respect to the flow temperature.
