    Abstract Counting and sizing blood cells in hematological analyzers is achieved using the Coulter principle. The cells flow in a micro-aperture in which a strong electrical field is imposed, so that an electrical perturbation, called pulse, is measured each time a cell crosses the orifice. The pulses are expected to contain information on the shape and deformability of Red Blood Cells (RBCs), since recent studies state that RBCs rotate and deform in the micro-orifice. By implementing a dedicated numerical model, the present study sheds light on a variety of cells dynamics, which leads to different associated pulse signatures. Furthermore, simulations provide new insights on how RBCs shapes and mechanical properties affect the measured signals. Those numerical observations are confirmed by experimental assays. Finally, specific features are introduced for assessing the most relevant characteristics from the various pulse signatures and shown to highlight RBCs alterations induced by drugs. In summary, this study paves the way to a characterization of RBC rheology by routine hematological instruments.

    Abstract In routine hematological instruments, blood cells are counted and sized by monitoring the impedance signals induced during their passage through a Coulter orifice. However, only signals associated with centered paths in the aperture are considered for analysis, while the rejected measurements, caused by near-wall trajectories, can provide additional information on red blood cells (RBC), as recent publications suggest. To assess usefulness of two new parameters in describing alterations in RBC properties, we performed a pilot study to compare blood samples from patients with diabetes mellitus (DM), frequent pathological condition associated with impairment in RBC deformability, versus controls. A total of 345 blood samples were analyzed: 225 in the DM group and 120 in the control group. A diagram of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], the two new parameters derived from the analysis of impedancemetry pulses, was used to compare distribution of RBC subpopulations between groups. To discriminate RBC from DM and control individuals, based on our multiparametric analysis, we built a score from variables derived from [Formula: see text] matrix which showed good performances: area under the receiving operating characteristic curve 0.948 (0.920-0.970), p<0.0001; best discriminating value: negative predictive value 94.7%, positive predictive value was 78.4%. These results seem promising to approach RBC alterations in routine laboratory practice. The related potential clinically relevant outcomes remain to be investigated.
