Engineered human capillaries are providing an astounding view of how red blood cells transit ultra-small blood vessels. This new platform was used in a recent study to learn how severe malaria ...

With fracking, scientists have calculated the expected level of capillary rise with the Lucas-Washburn equation, a mathematical model whose earliest parameters were first devised nearly a century ago.

3D microvessels have been created to observe how red blood cells transit ultra-small blood vessels. They squeeze single-file through microvessels to bring oxygen and nutrients. Red cells burdened with ...
