Flow of red blood cells in microchannel networks: in vitro studies

Blood exhibits unique flow characteristics on micro-scale level, due to the complex biochemical structure of Red Blood Cells (RBCs) and their response to both shear and extensional flow, which influence the rheological properties and flow behavior of blood [1,2]. In the past years, several in vitro...
