Abstract
The rheological behavior of RBCs treated with WGA of different concent rations was measured by the recently developed new Ektacytometry metho d in suspending medium of low viscosity. The biophysical meanings of t he orientation index (DI)(or) and the small deformation index (DI)(d) in the new Ektacytometry were explained by comparison with the results using the fluorescence polarization technique and the electron spin r esonance technique (ESR).
