Abstract:
Described are chromogenic sensors, methods of use, and kits including sensors. The sensors can have a polymer structure with a waveform cross-section in a programmed state. Upon exposure to a first liquid, the polymer structure in the programmed state changes to polymer structure in an activated state. Methods for measuring the presence of a liquid using the sensor are described, as are kits including the sensors.

Abstract:
Described herein are eye implants that can include a pressure-responsive material that can be capable of changing color in response to pressure exerted on it. Also described here are methods of implanting and using the eye implants described herein to monitor intraocular pressure in a subject. The pressure-responsive material can be used to diagnose and monitor human or animal subjects.
Abstract:
Provided herein are methods for fabricating a porous polymer material, methods for revealing hidden anti-counterfeiting patterns, chromogenic sensors having hidden anti-counterfeiting patterns, and the like. Chromogenic sensors including porous polymer materials are provided. The chromogenic sensors can reveal hidden patterns such as anti-counterfeiting patterns and the pattern can be re-hidden.
