Effect of low-intensity laser radiation of the red spectrum on some properties of erythrocytes in Wistar rats

Laser radiation of different power had various effects on the properties of erythrocytes. An increase in the radiation power from 2.2 to 25 mW/cm 2 was accompanied by a decrease in the erythrocyte sedimentation rate and an increase in erythrocyte filtration index. Radiation of 50 mW/cm 2 induced abn...

Description
Summary:Laser radiation of different power had various effects on the properties of erythrocytes. An increase in the radiation power from 2.2 to 25 mW/cm 2 was accompanied by a decrease in the erythrocyte sedimentation rate and an increase in erythrocyte filtration index. Radiation of 50 mW/cm 2 induced abnormal erythrocyte aggregation. Increasing the time of irradiation at power intensity of 2.2 mW/cm 2 did not potentiate its effect on the blood.
