Abstract

In this study optical sensing membrane was developed for the queantification of dissolved carbon dioxide in micro-bioreactor using an immobilized 8-hydroxypyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonic acid trisodium salt (HPTS). For the immobilization of HPTS sol-gel was synthesied by using 3-glycidoxypropyl-dimethoxymethylsiline and tetraethyl orthosilicate.
