Sumario:This study investigates the effects produced by an increased concentration of glucose in a suspending medium on the erythrocytes Information Theory quantifiers. Erythrocytes, which were obtained from eight healthy volunteers, were washed and incubated in vitro with glucose solutions at different concentrations. The measured Wavelet-based Information Theory quantifiers include the Relative Wavelet Energy (RWE), the Normalized Total Wavelet Shannon Entropy (NTWS), MPR-Statistical Complexity Measure (SCM) and entropy-complexity plane. The results show that the increase in glucose concentration does not produce significant changes on the RWE, while significant ones on the NTSE, which combined with SCM values allow to identify different behaviour for all the different populations in the entropy-complexity plane. Modification in the hemorheological properties of cells could be clearly detected with these Wavelet-based Information Theory quantifiers. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.
