Direct observation of deformation of individual red blood cells in oscillatory fluid flow produced using a generator of precise sinusoidal shear flow

We report the development of a precision sinusoidal shear flow generator that creates an oscillatory shear flow in the narrow gap between two parallel glass plates moving in opposite directions, thereby allowing direct observation of the cyclical deformation and recovery of a single red blood cell (...
