Send a string from Arduino to Windows Store App via Bluetooth?

I am trying to get a Unity3d Windows Store App game to read a string of text that is sent from an Arduino Uno Rev3 over Bluetooth.

Unfortunately, the Windows Store App platform does not allow use of the System.IO.Ports namespace, so I am not sure how to get it to read the Bluetooth data.

Does anybody know how to read data from Bluetooth in a Windows Store App?

Any help is appreciated,

Thanks
