Abstract:
The nonlinear acoustic parameter
B/
A and its dependence on solute concentration have been determined for several aqueous solutions of biological samples by using comparative method. The
B/
A values for aqueous solutions of dextrose, of sucrose, of ethylene glycol were found tq increase linearly with solution concentration. The
B/
A value for fresh whole porcine blood has been obtained to be 5.8 at temperature 26℃. Dependence of internal pressure
P* on concentration also has been determined for ethylene glycol solution.
