Correlated flickering of erythrocytes membrane observed with dual time resolved membrane fluctuation spectroscopy under different d-glucose concentrations

Abstract A correlated human red blood cell membrane fluctuation dependent on d-glucose concentration was found with dual time resolved membrane fluctuation spectroscopy (D-TRMFS). This new technique is a modified version of the dual optical tweezers method that has been adapted to measure the mechan...
