We develop a theory of electrophoresis of human erythrocytes that predicts mobilities significantly smaller than those based on the classical Smoluchowski relation. In the classical treatment the charge is assumed to be spread uniformly on the hydrodynamic surface. The present model takes into account that most of the charge, due mainly to sialic acid, is contained in the glycocalyx. The glycocalyx is modeled as a permeable layer of polyelectrolyte molecules anchored to the cell membrane. The charge is assumed to be uniformly distributed throughout this layer. The fluid flow in the layer is treated as being dominated by Stokes friction arising from idealized polymer segments. The Navier-Stokes equations are solved to give the dependence of electroosomotic velocity with distance from the cell surface. An expression for the electrophoretic mobility is obtained which contains two parameters (a) the thickness of the glycocalyx and (b) the mean polymer segment radius. The best fit to experimental data is obtained if these are given the values 75 A and 7 A, respectively. Deviation from experimental data at low ionic strength (less than 0.05 M) occurs. However, this deviation is in the direction one would expect if at low ionic strength the polyelectrolyte layer expands slightly due to decreased charge shielding.
