Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide an object-capturing device which accurately detects objects such as microorganisms captured at a test site. The object-capturing device of the present invention includes a capturing dish holding a carrier, which captures objects (microorganisms), on a first side of the capturing dish. The capturing dish has a through hole extending from the first side to a second side of the capturing dish. The object-capturing device is used in a way such that, after the objects are captured with the carrier directed upward, the carrier is directed downward and reagents for detecting the objects are contacted with the objects captured on the carrier through the through hole.
