Quantitative Measurement and Evaluation of Red Blood Cell Aggregation in Normal Blood Based on a Modified Hanai Equation [PDF]
The aggregation of red blood cells (RBCs) in normal blood (non-coagulation) has been quantitatively measured by blood pulsatile flow based on multiple-frequency electrical impedance spectroscopy.

The Effect of Glucose and Poloxamer 188 on Red-Blood-Cell Aggregation [PDF]
Glucose metabolism disorders contribute to the development of various diseases. Numerous studies show that these disorders not only change the normal values of biochemical parameters but also affect the mechanical properties of blood.

Relationship between red blood cell aggregation and dextran molecular mass [PDF]
The aim of this study was to investigate the aggregation of red blood cells (RBCs) suspended in dextran solution at various levels of molecular mass. Dextran solutions at molecular mass 40, 70, 100 and 500 kDa at concentration from 2 to 5 g/dL were used ...

The Relationship Between Aggregation and Deformability of Red Blood Cells in Health and Disease
The molecular organization of the membrane of the red blood cell controls cell morphology and function and is thereby a main determinant of red blood cell homeostasis in the circulation.

Red blood cell aggregation within a blood clot causes platelet-independent clot shrinkage [PDF]
: Platelet-driven blood clot contraction (retraction) is important for hemostasis and thrombosis. Red blood cells (RBCs) occupy approximately half of the clot volume, but their possible active contribution to contraction is unknown. The work was aimed at

On the use of photoacoustics to detect red blood cell aggregation. [PDF]
The feasibility of detecting red blood cell (RBC) aggregation with photoacoustics (PAs) was investigated theoretically and experimentally using human and porcine RBCs. The theoretical PA signals and spectra generated from such samples were examined for several hematocrit levels and aggregates sizes.

Hemorheological and microcirculatory effects of Pentaglobin therapy in an experimental model of fulminant sepsis [PDF]
IntroductionSepsis is a life-threatening syndrome characterized by dysregulated immune response to infection and multi-organ dysfunction. One of the key components of this condition is microcirculatory dysfunction.
