Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Morphology of Normal and Pathological Blood
The red corpuscles as seen in a drop of blood are of various ages, some are quite young, some are old; they vary also in size and in haemoglobin-content; further, some succumb earlier to laking agents than others, and if blood is examined at high levels, this fact is particularly obvious, for a specimen of Sherrington's ?uid which slowly but completely laked human blood in 24 to 36 hours at the sea-level at a temperature of 16° C., was found at the same temperature not to affect about {3 of the total number after a few weeks' residence at an altitude of 7000 feet.
