Abstract

A new method to find directly complex viscoelastic parameters (CVP) of human red blood cells is presented in this paper. Experimental determinations were carried out in an Erythrodeformeter operating in oscillating mode (0.5 to 3.5 Hz). The Erythrodeformeter performs direct determination of CVP of erythrocytes undergoing sinusoidal shear stresses by laser diffractometry.
