Abstract(s)

In this experimental work, we measure the trajectories of the cell-free layer (CFL) by tracking labeled red blood cells (RBCs) flowing around the boundary of the RBCs core. The circular glass microchannels studied are 100 um in diameter. The images are captured using confocal system and are post-processed using Image J and MATLAB. The results suggest that the trajectories follows a polynomial function.
