Influence of erythrocyte density on aggregability as a marker of cell age: Dissociation dynamics in extensional flow
M. Puthumana Melepattu, G. Maîtrejean, C. Wagner +1
Blood rheology and microcirculation are strongly influenced by red blood cell (RBC) aggregation. The aggregability of RBCs can vary significantly due to factors such as their mecha…

Spatio-Temporal Instabilities of Blood Flow in a Model Capillary Network
Mathieu Alonzo, Nathaniel J. Karst, Thomas Podgorski +2
We present experimental evidence of multiple blood flow configurations in a relatively simple microfluidic network under constant inlet conditions. We provide evidence of multistab…

Dissociation of red blood cell aggregates in extensional flow
Midhun Puthumana Melepattu, Guillaume Maitrejean, Thomas Podgorski
Blood rheology and microcirculation are strongly influenced by red blood cell aggregation. We investigate the dissociation rates of red cell aggregates in extensional flow using hy…
