Supported Erythrocyte Membranes on Piezoelectric Sensors for Studying the Interactions with Nanoparticles.

Applications of nanoparticles (NPs) in nanodrugs, food additives, and cosmetics can result in the presence of nanomaterials in the human circulatory system and their attachment to red blood cells (RBCs), which may lead to cytotoxic effects. To investigate the interactions of NPs with RBC membranes (RBCm), supported erythrocyte membranes (SRBCm) were developed on piezoelectric sensors in a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D) at 25 °C. A well-dispersed RBCm suspension at 1 mM NaCl and 0.
