Hydrogels containing colorimetric nanoparticles have been used for ion sensing, glucose detection, and microbial metabolite analyses. In particular, the rapid chemical reaction owing to both the hydrogel form of water retention and the sensitive color change of nanoparticles enables the rapid detection of target substances. Despite this advantage, the poor dispersibility of nanoparticles and the mechanical strength of nanoparticle–hydrogel complexes have limited their application. In this study, we demonstrate a milliliter agarose gel containing homogeneously synthesized polyaniline nanoparticles (PAni-NPs), referred to as PAni-NP–hydrogel complexes (PNHCs). To fabricate the optimal PNHC, we tested various pH solvents based on distilled water and phosphate-buffered saline and studied the colorimetric response of the PNHC with thickness. The colorimetric response of the prepared PNHC to the changes in the pH of the solution demonstrated excellent linearity, suggesting the possibility of using PNHC as a pH sensor. In addition, it was verified that the PNHC could detect minute pH changes caused by the cancer cell metabolites without cytotoxicity. Furthermore, the PNHC can be stably maintained outside water for approximately 12 h without deformation, indicating that it can be used as a disposable patch-type wearable biosensing platform. |
