Average percent of cells which bind Annexin V Alexa Fluor 647 was also studied after shear stress in microfluidic channels. (a) Similar to the FC detection of IgG presence, presence of PS on RBCs was determined using first gates for CD235a FITC fluorescence and on event size by FSC-SSC. (b) The fraction of red blood cells with externalized PS as determined by binding of fluorescently labeled Annexin V was small and did not increase with duration of shear (n = 5). (c) The average fluorescence of the control flow cytometry results was found. That value was then taken as a reference for the relative increase in fluorescence recorded by flow cytometry. The amount of PS fluorescence in the positive subpopulation did increase significantly with exposure time(n = 5, p = 0.01).
