  • Title: Correlations between the cerebrospinal fluid surface tension value and 1. Concentration of total proteins 2. Number of cell elements.
    Author: Kratochvíl A, Hrncír E.
    Journal: Gen Physiol Biophys; 2002 Mar; 21(1):47-53. PubMed ID: 12168725.
    Abstract:
    The contribution gives a survey about the problematics of surface tension in biomedical sciences. The paper presents results of a study devoted to the cerebrospinal fluid. The distribution of the surface tension values of this liquid in healthy individuals is presented (n = 33), and further, statistically significant correlations between the cerebrospinal fluid surface tension value and 1. concentration of total proteins expressed by Spearman's coefficient p(s) = (-0.995) and 2. number of cell elements expressed through Spearman's coefficient p(s) = (-0.965) in cerebrospinal fluid are described.
