The present work aims to study the effects of the blood-microstructure on the electrical conduction from two different but correlated properties: Electrical and mechanical (viscosity), and to derive useful parameters for the evaluation of electrical conduction as a function of the blood viscosity. ac-conductivity and dielectric constant of normal and diabetic blood are measured in the frequency range 10 kHz-1 MHz at the room temperature. An empirical relation relating the resistivity and viscosity of the blood has been presented. The results show that a microfluidic device is a viable and simple solution for determination of electrical and rheological behaviors of blood samples.
本工作旨在研究血液微观结构对电传导的影响,从两个不同但相关的特性入手:电学和力学(粘度),并推导出有用的参数,用于评估血液粘度对电传导的影响。在室温下,测量了正常和糖尿病血液在 10 kHz-1 MHz 频率范围内的交流电导率和介电常数。提出了一种将血液电阻率和粘度相关联的经验关系。结果表明,微流控装置是一种可行且简单的方法,可用于确定血液样本的电学和流变学特性。
