<p>Disclosed is a method of assaying a target substance in a fluid sample. In this method, a) the target substance, b) a substance which specifically binds to the target substance, to which a biological active substance which does not bind to the target substance is attached, or to which a substance which specifically binds to a biological active substance which does not bind to the target substance is attached; c) a labelled substance which is the target substance or an analogue thereof labelled with beta -D-galactosidase, or which is a substance which specifically binds to the target substance, labelled with beta -D-galactosidase, d) a substance which specifically binds to the biological active substance and which does not bind to the target substance, or the biological active substance, which is fixed to a carrier, which carrier exists in a porous reaction layer of an assay element, and e) a substance which specifically binds to beta -D-galactosidase and which changes a signal originated from beta -D-galactosidase, which is fixed to said carrier or another carrier which exists in a porous reaction layer of an assay element are reacted and the change of the signal from beta -D-galactosidase is measured.</p> |
