Dielectric inspection of erythrocyte morphology

Abstract: We performed a systematic study of the sensitivity of dielectric spectroscopy to erythrocyte morphology. Namely, rabbit erythrocytes of four different shapes were prepared by precisely controlling the pH of the suspending medium, and their complex permittivities over the frequency range from 0.1 to 110 MHz were measured and analyzed. Their quantitative analysis shows that the characteristic frequency and the broadening parameter of the dielectric relaxation of interfacial polarization are highly specific to th… Show more

“…In the present paper, referring to our recently reported experimental data, we first demonstrate the capability of the DS to differentiate suspensions of different cell shapes [14][15][16]19]. The shapes of rabbit erythrocytes were controlled by pH regulation to form spherocytes (swollen erythrocyte), echinocytes, enlarged erythrocytes (expanded discocytes similar to stomatocytes), and discocytes.…”

“…where j l and j a are the limiting conductivities of the suspension and the supernatant fluid at low frequencies, respectively [14,16]. A suspension of spheroidal cells is also a system, for which dielectric responses are analytically solved (see [17,18] for details), and / is given by…”

“…frequency dependence), caused by the membrane of RBCs, in the radio frequency (RF) spectrum of the dielectric properties of blood [57]. This relaxation process is indentified as being of Maxwell-Wagner type [58,59] and termed, is known to increase with solute concentration [60], and has previously been observed in tissues [61].…”

“…frequency dependence), caused by the membrane of RBC, was provided in the radio frequency (RF) spectrum of the dielectric properties of blood [12]. This relaxation process is indentified as being of Maxwell-Wagner type [59,60] and termed β -relaxation [60,61]. Most the theoretical models which describe the cell suspen-sions focus on β and γ -relaxations [17,14,61,62], including the often employed Pauly-Schwan model [63], them account for the non-spherical shape of cells.…”
