Molecular Rotors as intracellular probes of Red Blood Cell stiffness
Alice Briole, Thomas Podgorski, Bérengère Abou
The deformability of red blood cells is an essential parameter that controls the rheology of blood as well as its circulation in the body. Characterizing the rigidity of the cells…
Vortical flow structures induced by red blood cells in capillaries
François Yaya, Johannes Römer, Achim Guckenberger +4
Knowledge about the flow field of the plasma around the red blood cells in capillary flow is important for a physical understanding of blood flow and the transport of micro- and na…
Dynamics of a large population of red blood cells under shear flow
Christophe Minetti, Vassanti Audemar, Thomas Podgorski +1
An exhaustive description of the dynamics under shear flow of a large number of red blood cells in dilute regime is proposed, which highlights and takes into account the dispersion…
The buckling instability of aggregating red blood cells
Daniel Flormann, Othmane Aouane, Lars Kaestner +4
Plasma proteins such as fibrinogen induce the aggregation of red blood cells (RBC) into rouleaux, which are responsible for the pronounced shear thinning behavior of blood, control…
Inversion of hematocrit partition at microfluidic bifurcations
Zaiyi Shen, Gwennou Coupier, Badr Kaoui +4
Partitioning of red blood cells (RBCs) at the level of bifurcations in the microcirculatory system affects many physiological functions yet it remains poorly understood. We address…
The plasma protein fibrinogen stabilizes clusters of red blood cells in microcapillary flows
M. Brust, O. Aouane, M. Thiebaud +10
The supply of oxygen and nutrients and the disposal of metabolic waste in the organs depend strongly on how blood, especially red blood cells, flow through the microvascular networ…
