By using sheep leucocytes as an illustrative example, it is found that the presence of multivalent cations has the effect of decreasing the rate of adhesion of the cells. On the basis of the concept of the Donnan potential, it is found that the magnitude of the electrostatic force for an ion-penetrable membrane is much smaller than that for an ion-impenetrable cell membrane. Under a fixed concentration of cations in the suspension medium, the rate of adhesion of the cells increases with the P?clet number, aspect ratio and Hamaker constant. ? 1995. |
