  • Title: [Ectacytometry of the erythrocytes in rats of the SHR, WKY and Wistar strains].
    Author: Katiukhin LN.
    Journal: Zh Evol Biokhim Fiziol; 1994; 30(2):232-7. PubMed ID: 7817659.
    Abstract:
    Deformation properties of erythrocytes have been studied using osmotic gradient ectacytometric procedure in rats with spontaneous hereditary hypertension (SHR), normal tension rats from Wistar-Kyoto strain and albino rats from Wistar strain. It was shown that high intrinsic viscosity and, to a less extent, changes in their form account for the increased rigidity of the erythrocytes from SHR rats. No significant changes in visco-elastic properties of the membrane were found. The degree of hydration of haemoglobin significantly increases in the order SHR-WKY-Wistar.
