  • Title: [New constellation of erythrocyte indices characterizing iron metabolism].
    Author: Angelova-Gateva P, Nin'o Sh.
    Journal: Vutr Boles; 1983; 22(1):63-71. PubMed ID: 6636708.
    Abstract:
    Via the determination of hemoglobin, erythrocytes, hematocrit and erythrocyte iron, a constellation is proposed for the assessment of iron metabolism in organism. The percentages of saturation of hemoglobin by iron, the absolute iron content of erythrocytes the erythrocyte iron per litre blood, erythrocyte iron in litre erythrocytes were calculated on the base af the data of the above mentioned indices. The index for the evaluation of erythropoiesis activity was calculated on the base of the determination of hematocrit, erythrocytes and erythrocyte iron, and via the determination of hemoglobin and erythrocyte iron - the iron reserves in organism were calculated. The constellation, making use of minimum quantity peripheral blood enables the characteristic of iron metabolism as far as 70 per cent of the iron in organism is conjugated with hemoglobin, erythrocytes, respectively.
