Abstract
Blood viscosity is a significant physical property to simulate the hemodialysis therapy. Fundamental experiment with the solution containing albumin and γ-grobulin showed that the intrinsic viscosity of proteins didn't change by temperature and the interaction between these proteins didn't exist. Then the viscosity of 14 normal sera, 23 HD patients sera and plasma water were measured to be found 0.7216 ± 0.0016 cp for normal plasma water and 0.7266 ± 0.0009 cp for HD patients plasma water. The statistical correlation could be demonstrated between the viscosity of normal sera and plasma proteins concentration, but no correlation was recognized between the viscosity of HD patients sera and plasma proteins concentration. HD patients results were devided into 5 groups by the results of AC electro-phoresis and correlation could be demonstrated in each group.
