    Microfluidic materials and devices for collecting and analyzing minute liquid samples were developed. First, the highly sensitive glucose sensor with a porous microneedle electrode was developed, and it was revealed that the porous structure contributes to the high sensitivity. Second, a numerical analysis workflow for structural optimization of fractal open microfluidic channels was established and new materials suitable for the fabrication of the channels were investigated.

    Microneedle arrays with porous structures were applied to wearable sensors of interstitial fluid of skin with various modalities. A fluorescent sensor bearing a boronic acid moiety was integrated into micropores of the microneedles to demonstrate potential for the measurement of glucose concentration. Electroless plating on the micropore surface allowed for the electrochemical sensing of glucose by glucose oxidase.
