“…20 Yet, challenges arise from potential pH indicator leakage when physically trapped in the hydrogel or poor response when chemically crosslinked in the hydrogel matrix. [32][33][34][35] Neutral red (NR), a widely employed pH indicator in biology, is commonly immobilized in sensitive hydrogels or films. 36 Its commendable performance as a water-soluble colorimetric pH indicator, functioning within the physiological pH range, has positioned NR as a preferred choice in pH sensor applications.…”
Fiber-optic sensors provide real-time monitoring, showcasing the robustness of pH sensors in challenging environments. They exhibit heightened sensitivity, rapid response, and a notable absence of pH indicator leakage.

This review provides an overview of the state-of-the-art of OFS based on sol–gel materials for diverse applications with particular emphasis on OFS for structural health monitoring of concrete structures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
