Abstract

An integral hypothesis is submitted on the interaction of endogenous and exogenous factors in the mechanism of senescence of erythrocytes and on their selective phagocytosis by autologous macrophages. A method that allows quantitative determination and preparative yield of senescent erythrocytes is proposed.
