| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The present study attempted to determine the fracture strain of a single red blood cell (RBC) using non-contact mechanical tests. A crossed microchannel with a width of 50 um at the junction was fabricated. RBCs were introduced to the microchannel with expectations that RBCs are instantaneously stretched at the junction by colliding flows. The deformation behavior was observed with a microscope and recorded with a high speed camera. The amount of residual hemoglobin was estimated from the collected red blood cells based on the Lambert- Beer's law. Correlation between the maximum amount of deformation of RBCs during flow and the amount of residual hemoglobin was examined, and no correlation was found. On the other hand, a negative correlation was found between the compressive deformation rate and the residual amount of hemoglobin. These results suggested that RBSs are damaged more by compression than stretch.
