Abstract
Provided is a detection method for a target substance capable of enhancing detection sensitivity and quantitative property of a magnetic biosensor, while keeping monodispersity and dispersion stability of magnetic markers, including the steps of: reacting the target substance in a sample solution with a first target substance trapping member immobilized on a sensing element and with a second target substance trapping member immobilized on a gel particle to hold the gel particle on the sensing element; adjusting a magnetic marker precursor including the gel particle and a magnetic material precursor existing in the gel particle by bringing the magnetic material precursor into contact with the gel particle; synthesizing a magnetic material from the magnetic material precursor held on the gel particle, thereby adjusting the magnetic markers; and detecting the magnetic markers with the sensing element.
