Mechanical Properties of the Red Cell Membrane: I. Membrane Stiffness and Intracellular Pressure

The technique of Mitchison and Swann (1954) was modified for determining the resistance to deformation, or “stiffness,” of the red cell membrane and the pressure gradient across the cell wall. It requires a measure of the pressure needed to suck a portion of the cell into a micropipette. Stiffness o...
