Membrane NO concentration and Hct relationship for Hct>10%

Pm, cm/s RBC core-membrane NO
conc., nM		 R2 Plasma-membrane NO conc.,
nM		 R2
0.0415 CNO, core–m = 0.36 Hct + 75.75 0.98 CNO, pl–m = 0.0028 Hct + 0.58 0.98
0.4 CNO, core–m = 0.71 Hct + 22.62 0.99 CNO, pl–m = 0.049 Hct + 1.56 0.99
1 CNO, core–m = 0.54 Hct + 9.84 0.99 CNO, pl–m = 0.085 Hct + 1.57 0.99
40 CNO, core–m = 0.15 Hct + 1.46 0.99 CNO, pl–m = 0.14 Hct + 1.29 0.99

CNO, core–m is the NO concentration at the RBC core-RBC membrane interface; CNO, pl–m is the NO concentration at the RBC membrane- unstirred plasma layer interface; Hct units are in %
