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…
On the rheology of red blood cell suspensions with different amounts of dextran: separating the effect of aggregation and increase in viscosity of the suspending phase
Daniel Flormann, Katharina Schirra, Thomas Podgorski +1
We investigate the shear thinning of red blood cell - dextran suspensions. Microscopic images show that at low polymer concentration, aggregation increases with increasing concentr…
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…
