Apparatus and method for measuring activity signals of biological samples
First Claim
1. An apparatus for measuring activity signals of a biological sample comprising:
- a measurement chamber storing a target liquid containing a biological sample;
a porous insulating substrate provided with a measurement electrode on at least one side, said measurement electrode arranged on a surface of the porous insulating substrate; and
a conveying device which conveys the target liquid stored in the measurement chamber and passes the target liquid through the porous insulating substrate from the measurement electrode side,wherein the conveying device is operated to trap the biological samples contained in the target liquid onto the measurement electrode, so that the activity signals of the biological samples are measured through the measurement electrode.
