Effects of Physiological Parameters on the Electrical Properties of Blood Bank Stored Erythrocyte Suspensions

In this study, the physiological parameters such as extracellular (SAGM+CPD+residual plasma) Na⁺, K⁺, Cl^-, pH, 2,3-DPG and ATP together with the Cole-Cole parameters were measured using erythrocyte suspensions from 51 male donors (31 donors form the training set and 20 donors are used for testing), on the 0^th, 10^th, 21^st, 35 ^th and 42^nd days of storage. Accordingly, electrical parameters were all correlated with Na⁺, K⁺ , Cl^-, pH and ATP, at varying levels. By applying the multi-regression analysis, it is concluded that R_i, R_e and C_m are appropriate for modeling Na⁺, K ⁺, Cl^-, pH and ATP during blood bank storage and predicting blood quality
