Abstract
The present invention provides a detection instrument capable of easily detecting an intended detection object without any skilled technique. The detection instrument (1) of the present invention includes a detection portion (12), a detection reagent which develops a color by specifically reacting with a detection object in a sample is placed in the detection portion (12), positional information of the detection reagent in the detection portion (12) is information on the detection object, and color development of the detection reagent can be optically read. It is preferred that a bar code is formed in the detection portion (12), and the detection reagent is placed as a part of the bar code.
Claims10
A detection method using a detection instrument, the detection instrument comprising:
- a detection portion, wherein
- a detection reagent which develops a color by specifically reacting with a detection object in a sample is placed in the detection portion,
- positional information of the detection reagent in the detection portion is information on the detection object,
- color development of the detection reagent can be optically read, and
- a bar code is formed in the detection portion, and
- wherein at least one of the following conditions is met:
- Condition (I):
- the detection reagent is placed on one to four positions of the barcode as a part of the bar code;
- and
- Condition (II):
- besides the bar code, the detection reagent is placed either on a part of or on the entire bar code, and the part of or the entire bar code is indistinguishable by color development of the detection reagent.
