Abstract
An object of the present invention is to improve visibility by reducing background noise in order to accurately detect the signal from a target substance in an immunochromatographic device. The immunochromatographic device comprises a membrane having a detection region, to which an antibody or antigen serving as a capturing substance capable of capturing a target substance is immobilized, for detecting the target substance by using an antigen or antibody labeled with a labeling carrier that is a colored particle to form a complex of the capturing substance-target substance-labeled antigen or antibody in the capturing substance-immobilized detection region on the device, based on color of the labeling carrier, wherein a colorant having a color complementary to the color of the labeling carrier is allowed to be contained in a dry state in a constituent member of the device such that the colorant is developed together with a specimen when the specimen is developed on the device.
