The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for capturing a virus from a solution containing the virus in a simple manner without causing clogging in a process of capturing or concentrating the virus from the solution containing the virus, and assessing the quantity of the captured virus accurately and in a simple manner. As a means for achieving the purposes, provided is a method for assessing the concentration of a virus in a solution containing the virus by bringing the solution containing the virus into contact with a surface-treated hollow yarn or allowing the solution to pass through the hollow yarn to capture the virus and then calculating the quantity of the captured virus. La présente invention concerne un procédé pour capturer un virus à partir d'une solution contenant le virus d'une manière simple sans causer la coagulation dans un processus de capture ou concentration du virus à partir de la solution contenant le virus, et évaluer la quantité du virus capturé précisément et d'une manière simple. En tant que moyens pour réaliser les objectifs, il est décrit un procédé pour évaluer la concentration d'un virus dans une solution contenant le virus en amenant la solution contenant le virus en contact avec un fil creux traité en surface ou en laissant la solution traverser le fil creux pour capturer le virus et ensuite en calculant la quantité du virus capturé.
