Early stage of Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate test: Fracture of a high-volume-fraction gel
Thomas John, Lars Kaestner, Christian Wagner +1
Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) is a clinical parameter used as a non-specific marker for inflammation, and recent studies have shown that it is linked to the collapse of the…
Cell-free layer development and spatial organization of healthy and rigid red blood cells in a microfluidic bifurcation
Yazdan Rashidi, Othmane Aouane, Alexis C. Darras +4
Bifurcations and branches in the microcirculation dramatically affect blood flow as they determine the spatiotemporal organization of red blood cells (RBCs). Such changes in vessel…
Cell-free layer of red blood cells in a constricted microfluidic channel under steady and time-dependent flow conditions
Steffen M. Recktenwald, Katharina Graessel, Yazdan Rashidi +4
Constricted blood vessels in the circulatory system can severely impact the spatiotemporal organization of red blood cells (RBCs) causing various physiological complications. In la…
Red blood cell shape transitions and dynamics in time-dependent capillary flows
Steffen M. Recktenwald, Katharina Graessel, Felix M. Maurer +3
The dynamics of single red blood cells (RBCs) determine microvascular blood flow by adapting their shape to the flow conditions in the narrow vessels. In this study, we explore the…
Lingering Dynamics in Microvascular Blood Flow
A. Kihm, S. Quint, M. W. Laschke +4
The microvascular networks in the body of vertebrates consist of the smallest vessels such as arterioles, capillaries, and venules. The flow of RBCs through these networks ensures…
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…
