New method reveals how damage occurs in human biological cells due to mechanical fatigue

18.11.2019 tribonet 385 Views

Human red cells (RBCs) are very versatile and have the ability to experience cell deformation as they move around different small vessels and capillaries. Their average life time is around 120 days and during this […]
