The red cell count and hematocrit were determined in the blood distributed to the rabbit brain through the carotid artery. Both parameters were found to be far greater than those in the blood distributed to the hind limb through the femoral artery. The decrease in the blood flow velocity in the carotid artery (caused by local luminal narrowing and increase in the flow resistance) brought about a proportional diminution of both red cells and hematocrit in the blood inflowing to the brain. Meanwhile these parameters remained unchanged in the control arteries (femoral and contralateral carotid ones). Hence the separation of red blood cells from the blood plasma in the vascular system occurs in the arterial branchings and depends on the blood flow velocity in the appropriate branches.
对通过颈动脉输送到兔脑的血液进行了红细胞计数和血细胞比容测定。发现这两个参数均远高于通过股动脉输送到后肢的血液中的相应参数。颈动脉中血流速度的降低（由局部管腔狭窄和血流阻力增加引起）导致流入大脑的血液中的红细胞和血细胞比容成比例减少。同时，这些参数在对照动脉（股动脉和对侧颈动脉）中保持不变。因此，血管系统中红细胞与血浆的分离发生在动脉分支处，并且取决于相应分支中的血流速度。
