Abstract

Abstract An enzyme immobilized membrane and a method for producing the same are disclosed in which the portion of an enzyme membrane having photo crosslinking, even if containing an excessive amount of an enzyme, does not peel off from a sensitive portion of an enzyme sensor. Elution of the enzyme from the enzyme membrane can be effectively prevented, and an enzyme immobilized membrane having a limited area and high mechanical strength can be produced with good reproduceability. An aqueous solution, composed of a water soluble photosensitive resin including polyvinyl pyrrolidone (109) and a cyclopentanone sodium salt (110) and an enzyme (102), is coated on a base (101) and dried so as to form an enzyme membrane. Then, light of an appropriate wavelength such as ultraviolet light is irradiated on the enzyme membrane to provide photo crosslinking between the polyvinyl pyrrolidone, the cyclopentanone sodium salt, and the enzyme. Such enzyme immobilized membranes can be directly formed on the ion-sensitive portions of pH-ISFETs so as to form a semiconductor enzyme sensor.
