OBJECTIVE:
Deriving new data on the space flight factors impact
on the human blood system to extend diagnostic and
prognostic capabilities of detecting mechanisms of
arising shifts in hematologic indices ("space
anemia", lymphocytosis).
TASKS:
Collecting samples of venous and capillary blood
with the aim:
- To study erythrocyte forms;
- To investigate metabolism of erythrocytes, cell
membrane conditions, indices of ferrum metabolism
and erythropoetin content in blood.
EXPERIMENT RESULTS:
- Samples of venous blood in KV-03 container;
- 'Eritrotsit' kit with fingertip blood samples;
- Data on hemoglobin content transmitted via radio
links;
- The logbook sheets with crew members' records.
EXPECTED RESULTS:
The findings will allow to detect mechanisms of the
blood system adaptation to space flight factors, to
extend the system of diagnostic and prognostic criteria
for assessment of human physical state under extreme
effects, as well as they can be used to develop prophylactic
and pharmacologic preparations to treat disturbances
in the blood system in these conditions.
