Undergraduate medical students often find it difficult to understand the phenomenon of osmotic fragility. ... An osmotic fragility test primarily indicates the surface area-to-volume ratio (SAVR) of red blood cells (RBC). Osmotic fragility of RBCs is defined as the ease with which the cells burst in hypotonic solutions and...

The osmotic fragility of erythrocytes after prolonged liquid storage and after reinfusion ... Although it is recognized that red cells lose membrane during storage, estimation of the osmotic fragility of erythrocytes has not previously proven to be a useful measurement of the storage lesion. Erythrocytes from blood stored...
