Line curvature algorithm in laser ektacytometry of red blood cells

Abstract

The iso-intensity line curvature algorithm in laser ektacytometry of red blood cells is investigated by numerical simulation. The algorithm is designed to measure the average deformability, as well as the width and asymmetry of the red blood cell deformability distribution in a blood sample under study. The accuracy and scope of the algorithm are determined. Using a bimodal ensemble as an example, the possibility of determining the fraction of weakly deformable red blood cells in a blood sample by laser ektacytometry is demonstrated.

Production of copper nanoparticles in the process of target ablation by radiation Cr3+:BeAl2O4 laser

“…In particular, lasers generating radiation in the near-IR region of the spectrum are used in surgery and cosmetology. Radiation with wavelengths of 0.83 µm, 0.89 µm and 0.785 µm are promising for the treatment of numerous skin diseases [1]. A promising direction for using solid-state laser radiation is laser ablation of materials in liquid, which is used to form nano-sized materials.…”
