Paul Reznikoff M.D.1
1 From the Laboratories of Physiology of Harvard Medical School, Boston.
1. A simple method for determining the specific gravity of red blood cells is described.
2. It is more rapid than and as accurate as pycnometer determinations.
3. The marked chemical and physical interactions between corpuscles and suspension fluids in other methods are avoided.
