One type of nanorobot which can be used is the respirocytes.The respirocytes are artificial mechanical red blood cells designed by Robert.A.Fretias. It is a 1000 atm diamondoid pressure vessel designed to deliver oxygen about 236 times more than the natural blood cells per unit cell volume. These respirocytes are provided

Blood doping is the first type of ergogenic aid that an endurance athlete such as a marathon runner may use. Blood doping is re-injecting red blood cells into the bloodstream that have previously been removed from the athlete. Whilst the blood was removed the body created more blood in order to compensate for the loss. This means that when the blood is returned there are a lot more red blood cells in the circulatory system. The effect of blood doping is that due to the increased number of red blood

Intro to hematology: 1) Hematology is the study of the blood including what it looks like (morphology) and diseases. 2) The most frequently performed hematologic lab test is the CBC or complete blood count. a) White Blood Cell Count (WBC) count b) Red Blood Cell Count (RBS) count c) Platelet count d) Hemoglobin (Hgb) e) Hematocrit (Hct) f) Differential WBC count g) RBC indices 3) Hemoglobin is a major component of RBC’s and it transports O2 to the tissues and carries CO2 from them back

Introduction By examining blood smear by microscopy it can detect infections whether they are viral or bacterial. Blood smears are examined by looking at the white and red blood cells appearances. The aim of the experiment is to compare a normal blood smear and its pathological features to those with an infection or abnormality by the use of microscopy looking at the cells involved with blood. A normal blood smear would contain 3 to 4 white blood cells per field in microscopy. If there is an

Kramas Cells and Heredity Lab Tuesday 2:00-4:50 22 OCTOBER 2012 Membrane Permeability Decreases as Molecular Size Increases Introduction: Red blood cells are vital to organisms functioning properly. They are microscopic cells that carry oxygen from the lungs to all the tissues throughout the body. Upon transporting oxygen‚ red blood cells also exports waste‚ such as carbon dioxide‚ to the lungs where it can be expelled. Red blood cells are made up of hemoglobin which is surrounded by a cell membrane

Instructor: Robert L. Stewart‚ Jr. Sickle cell anemia affects people with African‚ Mediterranean‚ Middle Eastern‚ and Indian ancestry (Scientific American). Sickle cell anemia occurs when a person inherits two sickle cell gene‚ one from each parent‚ that cause the red blood cells to change and become crescent shaped. The underlying problem involves hemoglobin‚ a component of the red blood cells. Hemoglobin is a protein molecule in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the body’s

increased level of red blood cells in the bloodstream. People with polycythemia have an increase in hematocrit‚ hemoglobin‚ or red blood cell count is more than the normal limits. Polycythemia is also known as polycythaemia or polyglobulia. Polycythemia is a disease where in which the proportion of blood volume that is occupied by red blood cells increases. Blood volume proportions can be measured as hematocrit level. It can be because of an increase in the number of red blood cells. Polycythemia is
