A method of assaying a substance having an affinity based on the pearl chain formation of carrier particles, which includes the step of electrically destroying a blood-cell ingredient. In the method, the blood-cell ingredient which interferes with the count of carrier particles is electrically destroyed. The blood cell ingredient can be destroyed without the need of adding a hemolytic agent, which interferes with immunological reactions. Thus, a whole blood sample can be used as it is as an assay sample without the need of separating the blood serum and blood plasma therefrom. Therefore, there is no need of separating out blood serum and blood plasma in preparation for the assay of a blood ingredient.
