Abstract :
The present investigation was aimed to find out autoregulation factor of blood viscosity for various diseases by confirming blood as a non-Newtonian power law fluid. It was found that the autoregulation factor can be used for differentiating normal and pathological samples and subsequent rheological mapping of individual blood samples.
