We investigated the in-situ photothermal response of human red blood cells (RBCs) by combining photothermal heat generation and 3D quantitative phase imaging techniques. Gold-nanorod-coated substrates were excited using near-infrared light to generate local heat to RBCs, and response was measured by imaging 3-D refractive index tomograms of cells under various near infrared (NIR) excitation conditions. On photothermal treatment, cell morphology changed from discoid to crescent shapes, cell volume and dry mass decreased, and hemoglobin concentration increased. We also investigated the irreversible deformation of RBCs when multiple intense excitation shocks are applied. These results provide a new understanding of thermodynamic aspects of cell biology and hematology. O_FIG_DISPLAY_L [Figure 1] M_FIG_DISPLAY C_FIG_DISPLAY

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
