title: [VISCOELASTISITY AND ELECTRICAL PARAMETERS OF ERYTHROCYTES IN GILBERT SYNDROME].
abstract: Results of viscoelastic and electrical properties of erythrocytes study in patients with genetically confirmed Gilbert's syndrome (n = 81) are presented. Dielectrophoresis of erythrocytes in a nonuniform an alterning electric field was performed in81 patients with Gilbert's syndrome and in 20 persons of the comparison group without of the pathology identified by thelaboratory and instrumental examination. The significant differences in viscoelasticity properties of erythrocytes in Gilbert'ssyndrome were obtained. The amplitude of the deformation, the speed of movement to the electrodes and the polarizability on electric field's of all frequencies were significantly lower, but generalized rigidity index, viscosity, index of aggregationand degradation on electric field's of all frequencies were higher than in the comparison group. A number of electricalparameters (conductivity, the capacity of the cells and the relative polarizability) were also higher than in the comparisongroup. Some differences in the parameters of erythrocytes were obtained from homozygous and heterozygous carriers of A(TA), TAA of gene UGT1A1 promotor.
