Combining optical diffraction tomography with imaging flow cytometry for characterizing morphology, hemoglobin content, and membrane deformability of live red blood cells [PDF]
Integrating optical diffraction tomography with imaging flow cytometry enables label-free quantifications of the three-dimensional (3D) morphology and hemoglobin content of red blood cells (RBCs) in their natural form. Self-rotation of RBCs flowing in a microfluidic channel has been utilized to achieve various projection directions for 3D ...

Importance of many body effects in the kernel of hemoglobin for ligand binding [PDF]
We propose a mechanism for binding of diatomic ligands to heme based on a dynamical orbital selection process. This scenario may be described as bonding determined by local valence fluctuations. We support this model using linear-scaling first-principles calculations, in combination with dynamical mean-field theory, applied to heme, the kernel of the ...

SmartHeLP: Smartphone-based Hemoglobin Level Prediction Using an Artificial Neural Network [PDF]
Blood hemoglobin level (Hgb) measurement has a vital role in the diagnosis, evaluation, and management of numerous diseases. We describe the use of smartphone video imaging and an artificial neural network (ANN) system to estimate Hgb levels non ...

Incorporation in vitro of labeled amino acids into proteins of rabbit reticuloytes [PDF]
Continuing our work on the incorporation of labeled amino acids into proteins (1), we have begun a study of the incorporation in vitro of C14-labeled glycine, L-histidine, L-leucine, and L-lysine into the proteins of rabbit reticulocytes.

Hemoglobin Non-equilibrium Oxygen Dissociation Curve [PDF]
Abnormal hemoglobins can have major consequences for tissue delivery of oxygen. Correct diagnosis of hemoglobinopathies with altered oxygen affinity requires a determination of hemoglobin oxygen dissociation curve (ODC), which relates the hemoglobin oxygen saturation to the partial pressure of oxygen in the blood.

Studies on the Hemoglobin of Cooley's Anemia and Cooley's Trait [PDF]
The diseases sickle cell anemia and Cooley's anemia (also known as thalassemia or Mediterranean anemia) have associated with them "minor" or "trait" forms of the disease in which the symptomatology is minimal, and the abnormalities in the red cells are ...

Localised IR spectroscopy of hemoglobin [PDF]
IR absorption spectroscopy of hemoglobin was performed using an IR optical parametric oscillator laser and a commercial atomic force microscope in a novel experimental arrangement based on the use of a bottom-up excitation alignment. This experimental approach enables detection of protein samples with a resolution that is much higher than that of ...

A hem érfal komponensekre kifejtett közvetlen és közvetett patofiziológiai hatásai = Pathologic effects of heme on components of vessel wall via direct and indirect mechanisms [PDF]
Kimutattuk, hogy az atheroma lipid magja prooxidáns környezetet teremt, ahol a vörösvértestek szétesnek, a hemoglobin ferri- és ferrylhemoglobinná oxidálódik, és a felszabaduló hem és vas lipidoxidációt indít el.

Podoconiosis and soil-transmitted helminths (STHs): double burden of neglected tropical diseases in Wolaita zone, rural southern Ethiopia [PDF]
Background Both podoconiosis and soil-transmitted helminth (STH) infections occur among barefoot people in areas of extreme poverty; however, their co-morbidity has not previously been investigated.
