It has been found that leukocytes dominate these properties in the low frequency range (about 265 Hz), while erythrocytes control it at higher frequencies (around 1.2 MHz). MLPs dominate near 10 GHz. A theoretical model based on the relaxation of suspended micro-particles in plasma is presented which shows that each micro-particle has its own intrinsic frequency, f p. The electric conduction is at a maximum when the frequency of the applied field matches f p. In general, the theoretical approach gives consistent results compared to previously publish experimental results on human blood and E. coli, which have an intrinsic frequency of 232 Hz. The results suggest the utility of permittivity measurements for non-invasive studies of blood disorders and for microchip devices with corresponding extensions of the standard relaxation times model. In addition, these data shed some light on the mechanism by which bacteria can transfer energy.  ISSN : 0167-7322  Journal Name : Journal of Molecular Liquids  Volume : 160  Issue Number : 3  Publishing Year : 1432 AH 2011 AD  Article Type : Article  Added Date : Sunday, June 10, 2012  Researchers Researcher Name (Arabic) Researcher Name (English) Researcher Type Dr Grade Email سليمان عبدالله Abdalla, Soliman Researcher Doctorate soulimanabd@hotmail.com Files File Name Type Description  33558.pdf pdf Abstract Back To Researches Page
