[A study of RBC relaxation process by use of resistivity method]

In this paper, the relaxation process of RBC in the suspending medium of medium viscosity was studied with the Erythrocyte Rheometer(Electric Resistive method) developed by ourselves. On the basis of Fricke-Velick conductive theory of RBC suspension, the experimental results were discussed. The results demonstrate that delta R/R0-t curve can really reflect the deformability of RBCs and the viscoelasty of RBCs after their deformation.
