3.3.4.1. Principle of operation Lorrca® MaxSis
In order to evaluate the flowing capacity of blood in different parts of the body it is important to
have a technique available for the accurate measurement of Red Blood Cell (RBC) properties.
The LoRRca MaxSis is therefore an indispensable instrument. It uses a Couette geometry with a
static BOB and a rotating cylinder (CUP) to create a simple shear flow.
