[Magnetic susceptibility and magnetic capture of cells].

A phenomenon of magnetic capture of human erythrocytes and lymphocytes in paramagnetic and diamagnetic modes of motion near a transversely magnetized wire has been investigated. The values of magnetic susceptibility of numerous individual erythrocytes containing hemoglobin in various forms and lymphocytes were determined using a trajectory analysis. The distribution histograms of erythrocytes in various states and lymphocytes of magnetic susceptibility have been constructed. This histogram for lymphocytes cannot exclude magnetic identification of these cells. The method of determination of physiological concentration of methemoglobin in erythrocytes based on the distribution histogram has been suggested.
