Abstract

The influence of the change in the temperature and the acidity of blood on its hemorheological properties has been analyzed. It is shown that, at temperatures lower than 45°C, the temperature dependence of the apparent viscosity of blood at a rate of shear ranging from 0.3 to 50 sec−1 is adequately defined by the Arrhenius model with a viscous-flow activation energy of 13–17 kJ/mole. In the range of pH 6.3–7.6, the oversouring of blood mainly influences the critical shear stress, and the Caisson viscosity depends only weakly on the acid-base equilibrium.
