[Changes in the passive electrical properties of the erythrocytes during hemosorption]

Passive electrical properties of erythrocytes were studied during hemosorption in vivo. It was shown that specific conduction and capacity of the erythrocyte plasma membrane were reduced after hemosorption. Incubation of erythrocyte suspension with free fatty acids resulted in an increase in specific conduction and capacity of the plasma membrane. That effect was eliminated after the passing of erythrocytes through a column with activated charcoal.
