The present invention provides a chemiluminescence enhancer treated to
retain favorable dispersibility of fine solid carriers and stably exert a
chemiluminescence enhancing action. The invention provides a
chemiluminescence enhancer used for signal detection in a solid phase
immunoassay using antigen or/and antibody immobilized onto fine solid
carriers dispersible in a liquid medium, consisting of a water soluble
macromolecular quaternary ammonium salt, a quaternary sulfonium salt or a
quaternary phosphonium salt in order to enhance emission of light caused
by an enzymatic reaction of a chemiluminescent substrate having
dioxetane, wherein the chemiluminescence enhancer is given an aggregation
inhibition treatment of the fine solid carriers by the treatment with an
oxidizing agent or a reducing agent, and a chemiluminescence method and a
kit using the chemiluminescence enhancer.
