[An experimental analysis of the development of local capillary stasis]. / Eksperimental'nyi analiz razvitiia mestnogo kapilliarnogo staza.

Micro-application of NaCl induced a local slowdown to full stoppage of the blood flow in the lamina of individual capillaries in the Wistar rats mesenterium. The blood stasis resulted from local disturbances of the blood rheological properties. The erythrocyte aggregates obstructed the capillaries leaving no space for the parietal plasma layer. The findings suggest the intravascular erythrocyte aggregation to be the immediate cause of the blood flow disturbances and the blood stasis in the microvascular lumina.
