ANALYSIS METHOD INVOLVING MEASUREMENT BASED ON POLARIZATION ANISOTROPY, TEST KIT, AND TEST REAGENT

Provided are a reagent and a measurement method for enabling a specimen test based on polarization anisotropy to be performed with high sensitivity and within a short period of time. Specifically, provided is an analysis method including measuring a value (R) for polarization anisotropy through use of a luminescent reagent that binds with a target substance, the analysis method including: a reaction step including mixing a sample containing the target substance with the luminescent reagent and a sensitizer, and subjecting the mixture to a reaction to obtain a reaction liquid; and a measurement step of measuring the R of the reaction liquid, the luminescent reagent including a luminescent particle substrate and a hydrophilic layer arranged on an outside of the luminescent particle substrate, the sensitizer containing a hydrophilic polymer.
