Effect of pH on the velocity of erythrocyte aggregation.

The effect of pH on the velocity of aggregation of human erythrocytes was quantitatively examined with a rheoscope combined with a video-camera, an image analyzer and a computer, in relation to the morphological changes of erythrocytes and their aggregates. (i) With increasing pH of the medium, the velocity of erythrocyte aggregation increased. (ii) The rouleaux formed at high pH were longer in shape and more stable against the increase of shear rate than those formed at low pH. (iii) With increasing pH, the diameter of erythrocyte increased, the (maximum) thickness decreased, and the cell volume decreased. The pH dependency of erythrocyte aggregation may be mainly due to the morphological change of erythrocytes, and partly due to the changes of erythrocyte deformability and of interaction with macromolecules.
