| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Arteriosclerosis is a serious disease to cause cerebral infarction and myocardial infarction although the cause is still unclear. It is known that leukocyte rolls over the vascular endothelial cell and subsequently adheres to the cell mediated by some receptors as an early stage of the arteriosclerosis. In this study, we developed a technique to measure the rolling behavior of a cell flowing in a microchannel which mimicked blood vessel. To control leukocyte positon for ensemble averaging, micro focusing devise was developed. Three dimensional velocity distribution of fluorescence particle model for leukocyte in the micro focusing devise was measured using confocal micro particle image velocimetry (PIV) technique.
