Abstract

Providing an assay method capable of simultaneously determining the presence or absence of one or more species of biological substances or assaying the amounts thereof with a single assay device, a kit therefor and an assay device thereof. The amount thereof or the presence thereof is detected, by putting a liquid sample containing one or more species of analytes in contact to a reagent including one or more species of marker-labeled ligands and one or more species of nucleic acid-labeled ligands, to generate one or more species of complexes, developing the generated one or more species of complexes through capillary phenomenon in developing element in a sheet form, capturing the complexes through complementary nucleic acid binding onto anti-bond elements consisting of nucleic acids on detection zones and formed depending on each of one or more species of nucleic acids immobilized on the detection zone , thereby capturing a complex depending on the analyte species, through the complementary binding between the anti-bond element and the bond element, to form an independent band and to assay the amount or the presence on the detection part.
