There is disclosed a microorganism testing device in which various types of microorganisms can be easily concentrated. The microorganism testing device includes a detection chip, a carrier device, a controller, and a magnet. The detection chip includes a specimen container for holding a specimen containing microorganisms, a trapping particle liquid container for holding trapping particle liquid containing magnetic particles, a microorganism trapping section for trapping the microorganisms, and a liquid flow path. In a state where a magnetic force of the magnet acts on the microorganism trapping section, the controller controls the carrier device to flow the trapping particle liquid into the microorganism trapping section to form a filtration filter by trapping plural magnetic particles in the microorganism trapping section, and in this state, to flow the microorganisms into the microorganism trapping section so that the microorganisms within the specimen are deposited on one side of the filtration filter.
