[Fe59 studies on the question of rabbit erythrocyte life-span]. 1979

D Platt, and K H Hofmann, and T Vömel

The present paper demonstrates a method to separate red cells of different age. The erythrocytes were separated by ultracentrifugation. The validity of this method was examined with radioactive iron (59Fe). During seventy days kinetic studies were performed in liver and spleen. A body scan was used to distinguish liver and spleen by radioactive iron.

D004905 Erythrocyte Aging The senescence of RED BLOOD CELLS. Lacking the organelles that make protein synthesis possible, the mature erythrocyte is incapable of self-repair, reproduction, and carrying out certain functions performed by other cells. This limits the average life span of an erythrocyte to 120 days. Erythrocyte Survival,Aging, Erythrocyte,Survival, Erythrocyte
D004912 Erythrocytes Red blood cells. Mature erythrocytes are non-nucleated, biconcave disks containing HEMOGLOBIN whose function is to transport OXYGEN.
