Abstract

We studied stable nitrate ion-selective field-effect transistors (ISFETs) to detect human salivary nitrate using direct potentiometry. We investigated several biocompatible polymer based nitrate ISFETs as polymer matrix material. The prepared NO3--ISFETs showed almost the theoretical Nernst response over 10-5.5 M to 10-0.5 M with a response time of less than a few seconds except for Tecoflex®. As we applied whole human saliva using direct potentiometry, we obtained good relationship with conventional ion chromatography in case of KP-13 based ISFETs. We will also introduce several acute stress subjects for healthy volunteers using wearable heart rate monitor and salivary nitrate by prototype of nitrate FET checkers.
