(57) [Summary] [PROBLEMS] To provide an environmental monitoring method capable of measuring the influence of an environment such as chemical substances, electromagnetic waves, and radiation on nucleic acids, and having high detection sensitivity. SOLUTION: A nucleic acid-immobilized substrate in which at least one nucleic acid selected from the group consisting of a nucleic acid and a nucleic acid analog is immobilized on the substrate is exposed to an environment to be monitored, and damage caused on the nucleic acid on the substrate is visually observed. Detect and measure. |
