Abstract

The behaviour of red blood cell membranes in blood prepared for transfusion has been studied during the period of its' conservation. The pulse impedance method was used to estimate the conductivity and the capacity of erythrocyte membranes. The changes of these parameters depending on the induction of magnetic field were investigated during the whole period of conservation. A clearly expressed extremum of the parameters was observed in the control sample at the 18th day. It has been observed that the application of constant magnetic fields leads to the reduction of this extremum and thus prevents changes of the passive electric properties of the erythrocyte membranes.
