Abstract
Body Fe stores in blood donors were assessed using front-face fluorometric assays of erythrocyte protoporphyrin/heme ratios. Comparison was made with Hg levels and serum ferritin assays. Erythrocyte protoporphyrin/heme assays provide quick and reliable information about possible underlying Fe deficiency in the absence of anemia, particularly in regular blood donors.This publication has 22 references indexed in Scilit:
