Title: [A small subpopulation of rigid erythrocytes changes the erythrocyte filtration test]. Author: Morini R, Pasquini G, Albanese B, Manescalchi PG. Journal: Ric Clin Lab; 1983; 13 Suppl 3():333-6. PubMed ID: 6673009. Abstract: By means of the filterability test of Reid et al., the influence of a subpopulation of rigid erythrocytes (5% and 2.5%, respectively) was studied using Nucleopore polycarbonate membranes with pore size of 5 mu and diameter of 13 mm. The addition of 5% and 2.5% of rigid red cells delays the erythrocyte filtration times and alters the red cell deformability index. The meaning of the obtained data is discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
