The present invention is to present an analyzing method for analyzing a target substance contained in a sample using a reagent containing magnetic particles. The method comprises steps of: (a) magnetically capturing magnetic particles in a container with a first magnetic force generating member arranged on a lower side of the container accommodating a liquid specimen containing the magnetic particles; (b) transferring the container to a target substance separating section after the step (a); and (c) in the target substance separating section, discharging a cleaning liquid into the container and aspirating a liquid in the container while magnetically capturing the magnetic particles in the container with a second magnetic force generating member.
