Traditional assays for whole blood and RBC rheology analysis
Laser diffraction ektacytometry – RBC elongation index is measured under shear stress.
RBC deformability under an osmotic gradient.
Syllectometry – RBC aggregation kinetics and tendency are measured.
RBC deformability is measured under different oxygen tensions.
The relative oxygen pressure when sickle RBCs start sickling is measured.
