A numerical method has been developed with level set formulation for elastic membrane immersed in incompressible fluid. The numerical model satisfies mass and energy conservation without the leaking problems in classical Immersed Boundary Method(IBM), at the same time, computing grid we used can be much smaller than the general literatures. The motion and deformation of a red blood cell(including pathological & normal status) in microvascular flow are simulated. It is found that the Reynolds number and membrane's stiffness play an important role in the transmutation and oscillation of the elastic membrane. The normal biconcave shape of the RBC is propitious to create high deformation than other pathological shapes. With reduced viscosity of the interior fluid both the velocity of the blood and the deformability of the cell reduced. With increased viscosity of the plasma both the velocity of the blood and the deformability of the cell reduced. The tank treading of the RBC membrane is observed at low enough viscosity contrast in shear flow. The tank tread fixed inclination angle of the cell depends on the shear ratio and viscosity contrast, which can be compared with the experimental observation well.展开更多

文摘目的探讨一氧化氮(NO)对采用percoll密度梯度离心法分离的不同天龄红细胞(RBC)功能状态的影响作用。方法 1)将Percoll细胞分离液配制成5个不连续密度梯度(1.091,1.098 5,1.106,1.113 5,1.121 g/ml),将RBC按平均密度大小分层,依次吸取每层RBC分别做RBC内丙酮酸激酶(PK)含量测定并计算天龄、RBC内ATP含量检测、RBC变形性评价,以及RBC膜蛋白Western Blot。2)从同1份滤白全血中取出2等份,1份为实验组:加适宜浓度的NO溶液,另1份为对照组:加等体积红细胞保存液Ⅲ,分别于保存初期、中期、末期检测2组血液及不同天龄RBC的功能。结果 1)同1份样品经密度梯度离心分离后,RBC随着密度的增大,PK活性逐渐减小(6.192±1.25、5.165±0.84、4.538±0.76,P<0.05)、天龄逐渐增加(10.409、34.957、49.945)、ATP含量逐渐减少(4.755±0.037、3.242±0.445、2.929±0.153,P<0.01)、RBC变形性逐渐降低(200-1切变率下,0.381±0.005、0.340±0.033、0.281±0.028、P<0.05)、RBC膜带3蛋白量减小、聚簇化的带3蛋白量增多、膜上结合的IgG含量增多。2)NO组与对照组相比,全血各指标无明显差异,但NO组保存中、末期老年RBC变形性明显高于对照组(200-1切变率下,中期:0.290±0.021 vs 0.276±0.021、0.229±0.024 vs 0.211±0.027;末期:0.277±0.017 vs0.263±0.019、0.213±0.038 vs 0.193±0.039,P<0.01)。结论 RBC功能随密度的增大逐渐降低;NO可明显改善老年RBC的变形性,但对全血无明显影响。
