Reticulocyte counts of 48 normal men and 30 normal women were determined by the new methylene-blue method. The mean value for men was 1.65% (95% limits = 0.8 to 2.5%); for women, 2.45% (95% limits = 0.8 to 4.1%). The difference between the reticulocyte counts of men and women is highly significant. New methylene blue, like brilliant cresyl blue, stains siderotic granules in siderocytes. Therefore, in the presence of large numbers of circulating siderocytes, such as may occur following… CONTINUE READING
