DISK-TYPE MICROFLUIDIC SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MEASURING DEFORMABILITY OF BLOOD CELLS

摘要

A method for measuring the deformability of blood cells comprises the steps of: supplying blood to a centrifugation container of a disk; rotating the disk to centrifuge the blood into blood cells and blood plasma inside the centrifugation container, and detecting the actual migration distance of the blood cells per hour inside the centrifugation container; and producing a first graph displaying the actual migration distance of the blood cells per hour and a second graph displaying the theoretical migration distance of the blood cells per hour, and measuring the deformability of the blood cells by comparing the first graph with the second graph.
