Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide an electrode and a field effect transistor having excellent ion selectivity using a noncyclic peptide. In order to achieve the above object, the ion sensor of the present invention using a noncyclic peptide is an ion sensor where a noncyclic peptide is contained in a sensing membrane. The said noncyclic peptide may contain at least two kinds of natural amino acids or non-natural amino acids. The ion sensor of the present invention may be constituted by an ion-selective electrode or by an ion-selective field effect transistor. Examples of the main responding ion are magnesium ion, lead ion, potassium ion, calcium ion, nickel ion, copper ion, zinc ion and cadmium ion.
