23 Jun 2018
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To determine the number and intensity of phosphatidylserine (PS) expression of the red blood cells (RBCs), fragmented RBCs, and RBC-derived microparticles (RMPs) in patients with β-thalassemia/hemoglobin (Hb)E. METHODS: We used flow cytometry to determine the number and levels of PS expression. RESULTS: The number of PS-exposing RBCs was statistically significantly higher (P <.001) than that of...
