Acta haematologica, 1974•karger.comRed cell life span was measured in 5 subjects with sickle cell trait using both 51Cr and
DF32P as red cell tags. All were otherwise normal except for one who had pernicious
anemia in remission under maintenance therapy. The T 1/251Cr was 30.3+ 1.8 days. The
mean cell life with DF32P was 107.4+ 12.3 days. Red cell life span in subjects with sickle
cell trait residing at sea level is normal.
