Predicting optimal hematocrit in silico
Alexander Farutin, Zaiyi Shen, Gael Prado +9
Optimal hematocrit maximizes oxygen transport. In healthy humans, the average hematocrit is in the range of 40-45, but it can significantly change in blood pathologie…

Viscoelastic transient of confined Red Blood Cells
Gaël Prado, Alexander Farutin, Chaouqi Misbah +1
The unique ability of a red blood cell to flow through extremely small microcapillaries depends on the viscoelastic properties of its membrane. Here, we study in vitro the response…
