pubmed-article:7182088 | pubmed:abstractText | To assess susceptibility to oxidant induced membrane damage, the red blood cell H2O2 hemolysis test was performed in fifty-three chronic hemodialysis patients. Uremic red blood cells were not more susceptible to 2.5% H2O2 lysis pre or postdialysis than were control red blood cells. Oxidant induced red blood cell lysis is a function of the strength of the oxidant and not a testable intrinsic defect of the uremic red blood cell. | lld:pubmed |
