The magnetic orientations of human red blood cells (RBCs) and ghosts were investigated under strong magnetic fields (up to 8 T). It was observed that changes in the electrical resistivity of buffer solutions containing suspended RBCs and ghosts were caused by application of magnetic fields. This investigation indicates that both ghosts and RBCs are rearranged by the application of a strong magnetic field. It is clear that an anisotropy in the diamagnetic susceptibility of blood cell membranes contributes to the magnetic orientation of RBCs.
