Examples of red blood cell

red blood cell
The lysed cell suspension contains free parasites and redbloodcell membranes as well as parasites within the collapsed membrane of broken red cells.
In females (which bear the extra cost of ovary production), there is also a significant reduction in redbloodcell levels.
Inflammation, endothelial activation, redbloodcell membrane abnormalities and altered availability of vasoactive factors characterise this disorder.
The redbloodcell is held by suction at the end of the glass micropipette.
The 10 meta-analyses consisted of technologies to reduce the need for perioperative redbloodcell transfusion.
Interaction of hemoglobin with redbloodcell membranes as shown by a fluorescent chromophore.
There was no correlation between intestinal parasite infection and abnormal redbloodcell morphology or anaemia.
This anaemia may be accentuated by reduction in redbloodcell lifespan, by hypersplenism and/or by low grade disseminated intravascular coagulation.
To test the significance of redbloodcell density in the absence of parasitism, a second analysis was conducted on uninfected mosquitoes only.
It is not surprising that we found a positive association between redbloodcell density and bloodmeal size.
Unlike a liquid drop, a redbloodcell may not deform without limit owing to the virtually constant area of the bounding membrane.
The large diameter of a redbloodcell is approximately equal to 8 pm.
This parameter provides a quantitative measure of the degree of redbloodcell size variation (anisocytosis) in peripheral blood.
When a redbloodcell is placed in a straining flow, it starts deforming much like a liquid droplet.
This led to the realization that redbloodcell membranes must have proteins that act as water pores and contain free sulfhydryl groups that can react with mercurials.
