Journal Title: European Journal of Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
The reticulocyte count is one of the most common hematological tests to classify and monitor the treatment of different types of anemia, as well as to determine if the bone marrow is functional[8] Indirectly, it is used as a marker to measure the activivty of the bone marrow and directly in the evaluation of anaemia and it is mostly called the retics count. An increase of immature reticulocytes in the blood of individuals with iron deficiency anemia represents a response to anemia, as long as the medullary tissue and the indispensable factors for erythropoiesis are preserved. The reticulocyte counts and absolute reticulocyte count and CRC of students in ALNeelain university, were evaluated. The aim was to determine the reticulocyte and absolute reticulocyte count and CRC value among healthy female students of ALNeelain university A total of 50 healthy female students with age range of 18-23 years engaged in the study, reticulocyte count performed by using supervital stain (new methyeneblue) and the analysis done using statistical package for social sciences (SPSS). The result of the healthy female students was within normal range and significantly lower when compared to the mean value of normal range.
