" Pathophysiological aspect of malaria infection and sickle cell disease (SCD) is largely determined by biomechanical properties of red blood cells (RBCs) and their hemodynamical properties in circulatory system [1-3]. Here we present the biomechanical properties of individual red blood cells (RBCs) from patients with sickle cell disease (SCD). Using an optical imaging technique [4], we non-invasively quantify membrane fluctuation in RBCs at the nanometer and millisecond scale, which is analyzed with the mathematical model to retrieve four important mechanical properties of RBCs; bending modulus, shear modulus, area expansion modulus, and cytoplasmic viscosity [5]. We find high cytoplasmic viscosities in RBC with SCD. Mechanical properites of membrane cortex (bending modulus, shear modulus, and area expansion modulus) of irreversibly sickle cell is much stiffer than other types in SCD [6].
