    Abstract: The present invention pertains to a BNP measuring method with which it is possible to measure the concentration of BNP in a specimen with higher sensitivity and higher reproducibility. A protease inhibitor is added to a specimen that contains brain natriuretic peptide to obtain a pretreatment specimen. The pretreatment specimen is provided on a metal film to which a binding substance capable of binding specifically. Either prior to or following the binding to the binding substance, the brain natriuretic peptide is labeled with a fluorescent substance. In a state where the brain natriuretic peptide labeled with the fluorescent substance is bound to the binding substance immobilized to the metal film, the metal film is irradiated with excitation light so as to cause surface plasmon resonance to occur in the metal film, and then fluorescence released from the fluorescent substance is detected.

    Abstract: Aiming to provide a method capable of reciprocatingly delivering various liquids without bringing air into a microchannel, a detection system and a detection apparatus for implementation of this method. In order to achieve at least one of the above aims, provided is a method of inserting a pipette tip into a liquid injection portion of a detection chip including: the microchannel; the liquid injection portion connected to one end of the microchannel; and a reservoir connected to the other end of the microchannel, injecting and aspirating the liquid by the pipette tip, and reciprocatingly delivering the liquid into the microchannel. At this time, the following steps are executed in this order, the steps including: inserting the pipette tip into the liquid injection portion up to a position at which an end of the pipette tip comes below a liquid level when the liquid is injected into the liquid injection portion; injecting the liquid from the pipette tip into the liquid injection portion; generating a negative pressure in the liquid injection portion to raise the level of the liquid in the liquid injection portion; and performing either aspiration of the liquid in the liquid injection portion by the pipette tip, or injection of the liquid into the liquid injection portion by the pipette tip and aspiration of the liquid inside the liquid injection portion.

    Abstract: An antigen detection method using sandwich immunoassay includes a first reaction step of preparing a sensor chip, which includes a fine flow channel in which a reaction zone having an antigen-capturing antibody immobilized thereon is arranged, a liquid discharge/suction section and a liquid-mixing section, and subsequently feeding thereto a sample liquid so as to allow the antigen-capturing antibody to capture a target; and a second reaction step of allowing a labeling liquid containing a labeling antibody to flow into the fine flow channel so as to label the target. In the antigen detection method, the labeling liquid does not reach the liquid-mixing section. According to the antigen detection method, the accuracy and the repeatability of the target measurement can be improved.
