Glutaraldehyde – A Subtle Tool in the Investigation of Healthy and Pathologic Red Blood Cells

Glutaraldehyde is a well-known substance used in biomedical research to fix cells. Since hemolytic anemias are often associated with red blood cell shape changes deviating from the biconcave disk shape, conservation of these shapes for imaging in general and 3D-imaging in particular, like confocal m...
