[Role of leukocyte adhesion in filterability of blood cell suspensions]
Abstract:
We investigated blood cells suspension filterability of 16 donors. The filtration was performed trough 5 microns-pore nuclear filters at constant perfusion pressure 10(5) din/cm2. We estimated also the adherence of leukocytes and platelets on nylon. The adherence of platelets and mononuclear leukocytes reduced the level of the suspension filterability only by 21% (p > 0.05). The presence of nonadhesive polynuclear leukocytes in the suspensions did not change practically their filterability. The addition in the suspensions of adhesive polynuclear leukocytes reduced suspension filterability dramatically.
