This paper presents the characterization of a continuous magnetophoretic microseparator for separating white and red blood cells from peripheral whole blood cells based on their native magnetic properties. The magnetophoretic microseparator separated the blood cells using a high gradient magnetic separation (HGMS) method without the use of additives such as magnetic beads or probing materials. Experimental results show that the paramagnetic capture mode microseparator can continuously separate out 93.5% of red blood cells and 97.4% of white blood cells from diluted whole blood, and the diamagnetic capture mode microseparator can continuously separate out 89.7% of red blood cells and 72.7 % of white blood cells by using applying an external magnetic flux of 0.2 T using a permanent magnet.

The concept of Blood Stasis had been cognized merely as a sign in disorder of blood circulation since "Huangjenaegyeong(黃帝內經)" until "Sanhanron(傷寒論)" and "Geumgweyoryak(金匱要略)" started to describe, explain and apply independent symptom of blood stasis to practice. In this article, establishing the estimate feature of symptom of blood stasis in "Geumgweyoryak(金匱要略)" is the main subject, in sequence the pathological mechanism and targets of prescriptions suggested in "Geumgweyoryak(金匱要略)" are analyzed and restructured. In conclusion, the symptom of blood stasis in "Geumgweyoryak(金匱要略)" is caused not only from disorder of blood circulation but also from metal depression, therefore there are always appearances of excessive and deficient status simultaneously, in the process of symptom. The research on concept of blood stasis from the literatures in early ages will be the basis of future studies about disease of circulation in Korean Traditional Medicine.

Many interference in blood should be considered for non-invasive blood glucose level monitoring by near-infrared spectroscopy because blood glucose concentration is about 0.1% (w/v) in normal state. In this study, we investigated the influence of other blood components on blood glucose level monitoring by near-infrared spectroscopy. It carried out by newly developed portable type-NIR system (1100∼2200 nm). Spectrum features of NIR diffuse spectral data were investigated for some blood compnents powder such as hemoglobin, blood serum albumin, urea, uric acid, ascorbate, glucose, cholesterol and as adding glucose powder into other blood components powder mixture.

According to increase of domestic blood components use, the quality control of blood components is necessary to support good products. The purpose of this study is used to provide the producing index of the good product as compared with the accuracy and validity for the distribution of the quality control data. The value of mean, standard deviation, 95% confidence interval and degree of normal distribution of data were calculated by univariate procedure, the value of monthly mean of each blood centers per items were compared by Analysis of Variance(ANOVA) test for the degree of distribution. When there was difference among the mean values, the Duncan's multiple range test was done to confirm the difference. Finally, methods for accessing accuracy and validity of the quality data was done by the Contingency table test. The quality data of five blood centers was showed to the normal distribution and it was in a acceptable range. For each blood centers, the monthly means of Hematocrit(Hct), Platelet(PLT) and pH were not significantly different except Hct of C center, PLT of B, D center and pH of A center. The quality data per items was graded according to quality to six level. As a result of the comparative analysis, the monthly means of Hct of C and E center was significantly different higher than that of D, B and A center. The monthly means of PLT of A center and pH of C center was significantly different higher than that of the others. In the accuracy and validity of the quality control data, C center for Hct, A center for PLT and C center for pH were better than the other. The C blood center was most satisfiable and stable in the quality control for blood component. If the quality control method used in C blood center is adopted in other blood centers, the prepared level of the blood component of the center will be improved partly.

순환계는 혈액의 흐름이 원활하게 되도록 그 해부학적 구조와 혈류의 물리학적 특성이 연결되어있다. 혈액의 흐름에 영향을 주는 혈액의 물리학적 특성을 혈유변학적 인자(Hemorheologic factors)라 하며, 혈액의 점도(blood viscosity) 및 적혈구 응집도(erythrocyte aggregation)와 같은 혈유변학적 특성은 헤마토크리트(hematocrit; Hct)와 밀접한 관계를 가진다. 헤마토크리트가 높을수록 혈액 점도가 증가하고 적혈구 응집도는 증가하며 순환을 저해하고 조직에 산소 전달 능력을 방해한다. 혈청 페리틴은 과도하게 있을 경우 산화유리기(oxygen free radial)를 통하여 혈관 내피세포(vascular endothelial cell)와 혈구 세포(blood cell)에 산화 손상을 유발하여 심혈관계 손상을 유발한다. 이러한 기전을 근거로 사혈 혹은 헌혈을 심혈관계 질환의 예방 및 치료에 응용하려는 시도가 오랫동안 있었다. 사혈은 의학에 있어 오랜 역사를 가지면서 특히 한방의 치료적 개념으로 최근까지도 사용되고 있으나 그 과학적 근거가 불충분하고 아직까지 논란의 여지도 있어 근거 중심의 의학을 근간으로 하는 의학에서는 도외시되어왔다. 하지만 혈액량이 증가하면 혈유변학적 인자들(hemorheological factors) 역시 악화되면서 대 순환에서 동맥경화의 발생 및 진행에 영향을 주고, 모세순환(microcirculation)을 악화시키는 것으로 알려져 있으며 심뇌혈관 사건에 영향을 주는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 정기적인 헌혈자(regular blood donors)에게 혈유변학적 인자들을 저명하게 호전시키고 과도한 철분의 함량을 줄여서 산화유리기에 의한 혈구 및 내피세포의 산화 손상을 줄임으로써, 순환계내에서 혈액순환을 촉진시킬 수 있다는 증거들이 보고되고 있다. 헌혈의 효과가 심혈관계 질환에 이익이 된다는 확고한 장기적 코호트 연구결과가 도출된다면 절대적으로 헌혈 혈액량이 부족한 현실과 심혈관계 질환의 예후를 호전시킬 수 있다는 측면에서 중요한 역할을 할 수 있다고 생각된다.

In this paper, we show a new form of blood pressure controller combined PI control with $H_{\infty}$ loop-shaping. Hypertensive patients or post-operative patients need to maintain normally blood pressure. Exact regulation of blood pressure is needed for maintaining variable blood pressure of preventing complications. The regulation of blood pressure is achieved by injecting drugs, and usually sodium nitroprusside is used as those kinds of drugs. It is necessary to control the infusion rate sodium-nitroprusside carefully to achieve the desired blood pressure. It has been known that regulation of blood pressure by automatic controller is more effective than regulation of blood pressure by human operators. The control of blood pressure has many constraints and uncertainties. Most of biological system has the time-varying variables and the side effects such as increased risk of sepsis and organ failure. To solve such a problem, we design a new robust PI controller using $H_{\infty}$ loop-shaping to decrease noise effects that come out from human body and errors for time delay. The system with designed controller shows more stable control of mean blood pressure and more robust performance for uncertainties. Validation methods for the control performance are confirmed to computer simulations.

Hemorrhage shock occupies high rate in trauma patient's mortality and blood pressure is the variance that judges early diagnosis and the effect of remedy. Systolic blood pressure is related to pulse transit time(PTT). PTT means the time that is required to flow from the heart to peripheral artery. PTT is influenced from the length, cross section and stiffness of the blood vessels. It is hard to evaluate the correlation between systolic blood pressure and PTT because they are variable in human body. In this paper, we evaluated the correlation between the systolic blood pressure and PTT in normal and hemorrhage states using standardized rat. PTT is defined as the time differences between the R peak and the peak of pulse wave. The analyzed time differences of ECG and blood pressure are analyzed every 5minutes for 30 seconds when there is before and after bleeding. Before bleeding, systolic blood pressure and PTT are steadily preserved but when the bleeding comes started, systolic blood pressure is declined. However PTT was increased and decreased. Under the circumstance that the standardized rat is controlled by age, the length of the blood vessels, and any disease, it shows that PTT measurement using systolic blood pressure of bleeding is impossible.
