Paper Abstract
This paper describes preliminary results on the development of a fiber optic pH sensor for gastric measurements. As the pH values in the gastric system vary from approximately 1 to 7, a combination of appropriate dyes to cover this broad range should be used. pH colorimetric indicators bound in polyacrylamide microspheres and light scattering particles are packed in a cellulosic dialysis tubing at the end of a pair of plastic optical fibers. The experimental setup uses a CCD spectrometer as a detector and a 386 compatible personal computer. All parameters can be set by software. Results with both one-dye and two-dye pH sensors are presented.
