Evidences a(HM:"stored erythrocytes") to bp(MESH:"Erythrocyte Deformability")

Stored RBCs exhibit altered biophysical characteristics, including higher cell rigidity that accounts in part for impaired blood flow hemodynamics and adverse effects of RBC transfusion [26].

For example, Hb and subsequently, hemin accumulate during storage of human blood as RBC membrane integrity decreases [4].
