A sensor device according to the present technology includes a stack sensor. The stack sensor includes a first sensor layer and a second sensor layer. The first sensor layer has, as a detection target, a first substrate in a culture solution, the first substrate being changed in accordance with a change in a state of a cell. The second sensor layer has, as a detection target, a second substrate in the culture solution and is provided on the first sensor layer, the second substrate being changed in accordance with the change in the state.

Sensor device and detection apparatus

Provided is a material-fixing substrate that does not have to use copper as a catalyst because the substrate-bonding site includes a cyclic alkyne to form a covalent bond with a surface of the substrate, and therefore that can reduce damage to a cell, for example, in a case where a to-be-fixed material is the cell. The material-fixing substrate has a to-be-fixed material fixed thereon via a material-fixing agent. The material-fixing agent includes: a substrate-bonding site that forms a covalent bond with a surface of the substrate and includes at least a cyclic alkyne; a hydrophilic site that is bonded to the substrate-bonding site; a light-responsive site that is bonded to the hydrophilic site and changes the skeleton thereof by irradiation with light; and an attachment site to which the to-be-fixed material is attached.

Material-fixing substrate and method for producing same, and material-fixing agent used for material-fixing substrate

A method for enhancing luminescence of a luminous material, a substance detection method, a substance detection apparatus, and a luminescence enhancer are provided. A method for enhancing luminescence of a luminous material, the method including: holding, in a luminescence detection unit, the luminous material and a white colloidal particle both contained in a liquid; and irradiating the luminescence detection unit with light, in which the luminescence detection unit has an inner diameter of 300 &#x3bc;m or less in an optical axis direction.
