The object of the present invention is to provide a method for analyzing double
stranded DNA directly without denaturation. According to the present invention,
there is provided a method of analyzing double stranded DNA present in an analyte,
which comprises the steps of:
(1) contacting the analyte with a double stranded DNA recognizing substance
immobilized on a support, and
(2) measuring double stranded DNA bound to the double stranded DNA recognizing substance.
