Abstract
The present invention pertains to a method for detecting an analyte contained in a sample, the method including: (1) mixing the sample and salt with a gold-nanoparticle-labeled aptamer in which gold nanoparticles are bound to an aptamer capable of binding to the analyte; and (2) judging that the sample contains the analyte when there is no aggregation of gold-nanoparticle-labeled aptamer in the mixture obtained by (1).
Claims5
A method for detecting an analyte contained in a sample, the method comprising the following (1) and (2):
- (1) mixing the sample and a salt with a gold-nanoparticle-labeled aptamer in which gold nanoparticles are bound to an aptamer capable of binding to the analyte;
- and
- (2) judging that the sample contains the analyte in a case where there is no aggregation of the gold-nanoparticle-labeled aptamer in a mixture obtained by (1).
