The effect of temperature and concentrations of various substances on the microviscosity of erythrocyte cytosol

EPR spin-probe method was used to investigate the dependence of erythrocyte cytosol microviscosity (ECM) on the concentration of different substances and temperature. The critical ECM value has been determined after reaching of which erythrocytes become destroyed. It is shown that this ECM value is reached at different NaCl concentrations depending on the temperature.
