  • Publication number: 20120267258
    Abstract: In order to provide a method for electrochemically detecting an analyte which can detect an analyte with high detection sensitivity, when detecting an analyte S trapped on a working electrode, a label binding substance 90 in which a labeling substance 93 and a first binding substance 92 which traps the analyte S are at least retained on a support 91 composed of polypeptide is brought into contact with the analyte. Alternatively, a complex containing the analyte S and a label binding substance 290 in which a labeling substance 293 is retained on a binding substance 291 which binds to the analyte S via a modulator 292 is formed. Then, the labeling substance present on the working electrode is electrochemically detected.

  • Publication number: 20120132543
    Abstract: A sample substance S is captured by a capture substance 10 which is immobilized on a working electrode body 161 to provide a method of electrochemically detecting a sample substance capable of detecting the sample substance with high sensitivity. A complex which includes, on a soluble carrier 21, a sample substance S and a labeled binder 20 that has a modified labeled substance 23 containing a labeled substance 20 bound to modified labeled substance 23 containing a labeled substance 24 and a binder 22 that binds to the sample substance S, formed on the working electrode 161. The soluble carrier 21 is dissolved, and the modified labeled substance 23 is attracted to the working electrode 161.
