Title: [Sedimentation rate of erythrocytes as an indicator for phase transitions in the membrane]. Author: Beutel U, Glaser R. Journal: Acta Biol Med Ger; 1977; 36(5-6):921-4. PubMed ID: 23642. Abstract: Temperature dependent sedimentation measurements with human erythrocytes showed that the sedimentation velocity at 21 degrees C in Krebs-Ringer-solution, pH 7.4, has a peak shaped minimum [1]. In further investigations it could be shown that a phase transition of membrane lipids is the main reason of this peak. Membrane proteins influence the sedimentation behavior of the erythrocytes only by changing the interaction with membrane lipids.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
