Abstract

Large amounts of ferritin-like iron were detected and quantitatively estimated, using the Moessbauer technique, in intact red blood cells of 17 patients with alpha and beta thalassemia major, 2 with sickel-cell anemia and one with unstable hemoglobin (Hb) Hammersmith. The amounts of ferritin-like iron were comparable to those of Hb iron and were particularly large in reticulocytes.
