Determination of RBC flow clogging via micropore filters

Technol Health Care. 1995 Mar;3(1):47-52.

Abstract

Using a prototype system we determine the dynamic behaviour of the clogging effect of an erythrocyte suspension flow via micropore filters. The system functions as a simple electronic device and a characteristic curve of the change in height of the level of RBC suspension which flows through the filter versus time is plotted.
