Abstract:
The object is to provide a lysis method, lysis treatment solution, detection method using an immunochromatographic device, and detection kit comprising an immunochromatographic device for detecting whether causative bacterium of mastitis is a  staphylococcus  or not by using milk of a livestock animal. There is provided a method for lysing a  staphylococcus , which comprises the step of mixing a lysis agent containing a lytic enzyme, and at least one kind of ampholytic surfactant, and preferably further containing at least one kind of nonionic surfactant, with milk obtained form a livestock animal to lyse a  staphylococcus  existing in the milk. The lytic enzyme is preferably lysostaphin.

Claim (Index 3):
A kit for detecting a  staphylococcus  contained in milk, which comprises:\n the lysis agent comprising lysostaphin, an ampholytic surfactant, and a nonionic surfactant, and an immunochromatographic device for detecting a specific substance contained in milk, which comprises a test strip having a first part retaining a labeled first antibody directed to the specific substance, or the specific substance that is labeled, a second part disposed downstream from the first part, on which a second antibody directed to the specific substance is immobilized, and a third part disposed upstream from the first part or the second part and having voids enabling removal of milk fat globules contained in the milk.
