(A) Flow images of blood samples with three different Ht levels (Ht = 10%, 30%, and 50%). The interfacial line between PBS solution and blood samples is clearly shown by closing the outlet of PBS flow. (B) Variation in image intensity (I) according to Ht. I is obtained by averaging image intensity in the ROI (half of the downstream side channel). A fitting curve is overlapped with the data points. (C) Variations in the normalized interfacial width (W/W_Total) and viscosity of blood sample (μ_Sample) according to Ht. (D) Quantitative variation in the representative index that estimates platelet adhesion (I_A·T) with regard to Ht. (E) Microscopic images of blood samples before and after passing through the peristaltic pump. Each data set is obtained from three samples.
