title: Effect of physiological parameters of blood on magnetophoretic mobility of erythrocytes.
abstract: Magnetophoresis is the process of the particle motion under the influence of a magnetic field. The magnetic particle and medium are considered responsive to the imposed magnetic field, and the material property that describes the response to the external magnetic field is relative magnetic permeability, and the magnetic susceptibility. The present work aims to evaluate the effect of internal and external physiological parameters on the erythrocytes' magnetophoretic mobility (MM) using Cell Tracking Velocimetry (CTV). The results of this study showed that there are a strong correlation between MM and several physiological blood parameters such as mean corpuscle hemoglobin (MCH), red blood cells distribution width (RDW), mean corpuscle hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), and fibrinogen.
