title: [The use of mathematical models to describe the kinetics of human neutrophils attachment to the substrate in vitro].
abstract: The kinetics of morphometric parameters (perimeter, square, compactness) of human blood neutrophils, which attached to a glass slide, was described by the equations similar to the kinetic equations of the first order irreversible reactions. The calculated values of morphometric parameters of neutrophils in suspension, and attached ones are consistent to literature data. It was found that the compactness of neutrophils does not change in the process of the attachment. Time of termination in the process of attachment was found using the kinetic equations and amount to about 3 h.
