Abstract The propensity of circulating particles to drift laterally towards the vessel walls margination in the microcirculation has been experimentally studied using a parallel plate flow chamber. Fluorescent polystyrene particles with a relative density to water of just 50 g cm3comparable with that of liposomal or polymeric nanoparticles used in drug delivery and bio-imaging have been used with a diameter spanning over three order of magnitudes from 50 nm up to 10 ụm. The number ns of particles marginating per .
