Abstract

Frequent blood donations may lead to a depletion of body iron stores resulting in manifest anemia. Reticulocyte hemoglobin content (CHr) - a marker for impaired hemoglobinisation (IH) caused by functional iron deficiency (FID) - was investigated regarding its value as a routine screening parameter in frequent whole blood donors.
