Abstrakt: We develop a new strategy that involves the formation of microgel (MG) decorated liquid crystal (LC) droplets, which show remarkable stability. This system facilitates the analysis of the LC droplets that undergo an analyte-triggered conformational transition, thus optimizing the quantitation of aqueous analytes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
