An artificial red blood cell manufactured using nanotechnology.  2, record 1, English, - respirocyte

Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT

Respirocytes are hypothetical, artificial red blood cells that can supplement or replace the function of much of the human body's normal respiratory system. Still entirely theoretical, respirocytes measure 1 micrometer in diameter. Respirocytes mimic the action of the natural hemoglobin-filled red blood cells.  3, record 1, English, - respirocyte

Respirocytes function as artificial red blood cells, carrying oxygen and carbon dioxide molecules through the body.  4, record 1, English, - respirocyte

[...] hace años [se] desarrolló el respirocito, es decir, un glóbulo rojo artificial. Un nanorrobot que mide la milésima parte de un milímetro (una micra). ¿Cuál es la diferencia con un glóbulo rojo natural? La pequeña gran diferencia es que el respirocito puede proporcionar 236 veces más oxígeno.  1, record 1, Spanish, - respirocito

[L']anémie à hématie falciforme est une maladie héréditaire due à la présence d’une hémoglobine anormale S dans le globule rouge. Au cours de l'appauvrissement de l'organisme en oxygène, cette hémoglobine S devenue fibreuse durcit dans un certain nombre de globules rouges auxquels elle donne la forme d’une faucille : c'est la falciformation.  2, record 4, French, - falciformation

The nonagglutinating antibody is detectable with the antiglobulin (Coombs) test. For example, IgG anti-Rh antibodies do not agglutinate erythrocytes in physiologic saline whereas IgM antibodies do (the large IgM molecule can cross-link the erythrocytes at a wider separation so that there is less electrostatic repulsion due to the zeta potential).  1, record 5, English, - incomplete%20antibody
