Abstract Blood tests (e.g., red blood cell count) are very necessary for diagnosing and detecting blood diseases. Here, we have developed the electrochemical detection of red blood cells (RBCs) using single particle collision method. The staircase current decrease was caused by collision of RBCs on electrode, and providing quantitative information on the size as well as concentration of RBCs. As the result, the signals obtained by chronoamperometry (CA) measurement during a collision of RBCs with ultramicroelectrode (UME) showed high sensitivity in detecting anemia related diseases.
