| Peak reticulocyte response was observed 4 to 5 days post-injection. |
| The reticulocyte count measures the number of immature red blood cells being produced. |
| Slight decreases in red blood cell count, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and reticulocyte indices were observed in high dose monkeys treated for 9 months. |
| The reticulocyte rate increased significantly in the females of this group. |
| The corrected reticulocyte index should be elevated in patients with an acute anemia but a competent bone marrow. |
| The reference staining method for the manual reticulocyte count uses a dye such as new methylene blue and supravital staining. |
