A sensor capable of simply and quickly measuring the electrical activities of
a
number of cells simultaneously and a device comprising the sensor and capable of
detecting the signal transmission between subject cells are provided. The sensor
comprises a plurality of electrodes provided on a substrate. The electrodes individually
measure a signal generated by a biological sample held by each of the electrodes.
Each of the electrodes comprises a depression for holding the biological sample,
a throughhole which is in communication with the depression and penetrates to a
rear side of the substrate, an electrode portion, and a drawing line from the electrode
portion. The electrodes are arranged so that the samples held by the depressions
electrically communicate with one another.
