Abstract: The deformability of erythrocytes is a critical determinant blood flow in microcirculation. By capturing red cells (RBC) with optical tweezers and dragging them through viscous fluid we were able to measure their overall elasticity. We measured, compared, the RBC 15 homozygous patients (HbSS) including five taking hydroxyurea (HU) for at least 6 months (HbSS/HU), 10 subjects sickle cell trait (HbAS) 35 normal controls. Our results showed that was significantly lower haemoglobin S...
Optical tweezers are a very sensitive tool, based on photon momentum transfer, for individual, cell by cell, manipulation and measurements, which can be applied to obtain important properties of erythrocytes clinical research purposes. Mechanical electrical critical parameters stored cells in transfusion centers, immunohematological tests performed transfusional routines blood diseases. In this work, we showed methods, optical tweezers, study red them measure apparent overall elasticity,...
BACKGROUND : Gamma irradiation of RBCs results in the production reactive oxygen capable initiating process membrane lipid peroxidation and accelerates leakage potassium ions from RBCs, resulting an increase internal viscosity. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS The elastic properties irradiated stored RBC units were studied using laser optical tweezers. trapped cell elasticity was analyzed, measuring deformation six different drag velocities. Five split into two portions. One portion received a gamma...
Red blood cells (RBCs) from patients with sickle cell disease present reduced deformability. The aim of this study was to analyse the elasticity stored RBCs trait (AS).The studied, using laser optical tweezers, on storage days 1, 14, 21, 28 and 35.The RBC AS units for 14 21 significantly greater compared that control same time-period. More than 30% or 35 were very rigid escaped trap.RBCs became during storage, suggesting haemoglobin S might compromise elasticity.
Abstract The production of ethanol from lignocellulosic sources presents increasingly difficult issues for the global biofuel scenario, leading to increased costs current second-generation (2G) when compared first-generation (1G) plants. Among setbacks encountered in industrial processes, presence chemical inhibitors pre-treatment processes severely hinders potential yeasts producing at peak efficiency. However, some yeast strains have, either naturally or artificially, higher tolerance...
Este artigo procura estabelecer um diálogo entre os processos de subjetivação das masculinidades e o ensino escolar por meio da utilização histórias em quadrinhos, analisando as referências a HQs presentes nas duas coleções livros didáticos História mais distribuídos pelo PNLD 2020. A análise desse material é feita partir teoria filosófica Deleuze Guattari ideias dos pensamentos nômades rizomáticos, na medida que observa linhas fuga possíveis às segmentaridades impostas pelos dualismos...
