Summary

In three patients with aplastic anaemia due to chronic benzene poisoning osmotic fragility before and after incubation at 37°C. for 24 hours was performed. Although the results of osmotic fragility before incubation were within normal limits, a mild or moderate increase in osmotic fragility after incubation at 37 C.° for 24 hours was observed in two of them.

Zusammenfassung

Bei 3 Patienten mit aplastischer Anämie, die durch eine chronische Benzol-Vergiftung verursacht war, wurde die osmotische Resistenz der Blutkörperchen untersucht. Die Messungen erfolgten vor und nach 24stündiger Inkubation bei 37°C. Obwohl die osmotische Resistenz vor der Inkubation normal war, war sie bei 2 Patienten nach 24 Stunden bei 37° C leicht bis mäßig erniedrigt.
