lectins that agglutinate red blood cells (rbcs) were demonstrated in anopheles stephensi mosquito midgut extracts using human (four groups: a, b, ab and o, rh+) rat, sheep and rabbit blood cells. only rabbit rbcs showed agglutination reaction against the midgut extracts. significant differences in hemagglutinin titers and carbohydrate specifity were detected between male and female mosquitoes a...

objectives the aim of this study was to evaluate the biological effects of opium on the number of peripheral blood cells and red blood cells (rbcs) indices in diabetic rats. materials and methods peripheral blood samples were collected from diabetic, opium-addicted, diabetic opium-addicted and normal male and female rats and hematological parameters were measured. results the mean number of whi...

there are reports from different countries that some types of glaucoma are associated with blood groups. this cross-sectional study was performed on 400 glaucomatous patients [100 patients in each group of primary open angle glaucoma (poag), chronic angle closure glaucoma (cacg), pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (pexg) and primary congenital glaucoma (pcg)] and 400 blood donors as control group to as...

The current work presents a novel microfluidic approach, allowing full separation of blood cells. approach relies on using polydimethylsiloxane serpentine microchannel equipped with series electrodes, providing two zones. proposed design exploits the unique configuration channel along inherent difference in dielectric properties three kinds cells to achieve size-based sorting. platelets (PLTs) ...

A method for Red Blood Corpuscles (RBCs) counting has been developed using RBCs light microscopic images and Matlab algorithm. The Dataset consists of Red Blood Corpuscles (RBCs) images and there RBCs segmented images. A detailed description using flow chart is given in order to show how to produce RBCs mask. The RBCs mask was used to count the number of RBCs in the blood smear image.

Background and Objectives The significance of antibodies to red blood cells (RBCs) is variable cannot be predicted solely by serological testing. A flow cytometry-based erythrophagocytosis assay was established using phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-treated THP-1 RBCs labelled with PKH26 assess allo- autoantibodies RBCs. Materials Methods were differentiated into macrophage-like treatment ...

Introduction: In amphibians, blood may act as a hematopoietic tissue. However, the knowledge concerning hematological features is scarce, there not much information that allows an analysis about possible explanations of this physiological feature. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate relationship between immature red cells (RBCs) mitosis and presence parasites in amphibians. Methods: We samp...

Background: The well-known toxic effects of benzene toxicity are bone marrow depression, reduction in blood cell counts, and induction of leukemia and aplastic anemia. This study was designed to evaluate biomarkers of aging in red blood cells (RBCs). Methods: Mice were exposed to benzene (50, 100, and 200 mg/kg/day) orally for 28 days. A group of benzene-exposed mice were injected intraperiton...

Red blood cells (RBCs) are known to perform one prominent function: to carry and deliver oxygen to the tissues. Earlier studies, however, suggested a role for RBCs in potentiating T-cell proliferation in vitro. Here it is shown that the presence of RBCs in cultures of stimulated human peripheral blood lymphocytes strengthens T-cell proliferation and survival. Analysis of phosphatidylserine exte...

Classification of the morphology red blood cells (RBCs) plays an extremely important role in evaluating quality long-term stored blood, as RBC storage lesions such transformation discocytes to echinocytes and then spherocytes may cause adverse clinical effects. Most segmentation classification methods, limited by interference staining procedures poor details, are based on traditional bright fie...
