چکیده

Two types of stability are observed in suspensions of red blood cells. In weak concentrations of electrolytes the stability depends on the electric charge of the cells and suspension is unstable below a certain critical P.D. In strong concentrations of electrolyte, the stability bears no relation to the charge.

The Extracellular Relation of the Malarial Parasite to the Red Corpuscle, and Its Method of Securing Attachment to the External Surface of the Red Corpuscle

Laveran ( I ) has consistently claimed f rom the beginning that the parasites were extracellular and that they attached themselves to the surface of the red corpuscles, adhering to them " b y pressing on them." Richard (2) thought at one time that the parasites were within the substance of the red corpuscle; but later (3) he returned to Laveran 's opinion that they were attached to the surface....

Comparing Electrolytes in Prestorage Leukocyte-Reduced Packed Cell versus Unfiltered Packed Cell

Abstract Background Blood transfusion is associated with side effects caused by residual leukocytes in blood and blood components. Using leukodepleted blood components can decrease some of these adverse effects. Among the various methods to remove leukocytes in blood components, prestorage leukoreduction has been most efficient, but the evidence of clinical side effects awaits further studies...

The Distribution of Glucose in Human Blood

Glucose is readily soluble and so far as we know readily permeates the red blood cells. Unlike electrolytes, there is no reason to suppose that the conditions which determine the distribution of electrolytes on the two sides of the erythrocyte “membrane” would influence its distribution, so that it is reasonable to believe that the concentration of glucose in the plasma and erythrocytes would b...

The Formation of Macrocytes and Microcytes from Red Corpuscles in Hanging Drop Preparations

IN HANGING DROP PREPARATIONS OF NORMAL BLOOD FROM VARIOUS SPECIES OF ANIMALS INCLUDING MAN, THE FOLLOWING PROCESSES WERE DIRECTLY OBSERVED FOR THE FIRST TIME: 1. The process of fusion between two red corpuscles so as to form a round or slightly oval macrocyte with normal hemoglobin content, a diameter of 10micro+/- and no delle. These macrocytes appear to be slightly thicker in the centre than ...
