Abstract

Microfiber sensor is a variety of interesting wave guiding properties, including widely tailorable optical confinement, evanescent fields and waveguide dispersion. This research is focused on the development of a sensor due to its possibilities of realizing miniaturized fiber optic sensor with small footprint, high sensitivity, fast response, high flexibility and low optical power consumption. Here was a recent progress in microfiber sensors regarding their fabrication, wave guide properties and sensing application of BCAA (protein) concentration detections. In addition, a low-dimensional optical fiber with diameter close to or below the wavelength of light, optical micro/nanofiber (MNF) offers a number of favorable properties for optical sensing, which have been exploited in a variety of sensing applications, including physical, chemical, and biological sensors. Typically, microfiber sensors structures were including tapers, optical gratings, and circular cavities and functionally coated/doped were summarized. This project was developing to sensing concentration of BCAA for adequate amount required for human body. It sustained from dynamic exercise, so that a net loss of muscle protein will decrease the synthesis and increase breakdown in our body. The protein was used to restore a balanced after exercise with no hypertrophy occurs. In this paper, it’s reviews the principle, application and theory of fiber optic, fiber optic sensor, microfiber sensor and BCAA (protein).
