| The reticulocyte count measures the number of immature red blood cells being produced. |
| Describe the main limitations of the reticulocyte hemoglobin content assay. |
| Peak reticulocyte response was observed 4 to 5 days post-injection. |
| In a late stage the cell is called a reticulocyte, which ultimately becomes a fully mature red cell. |
| The reticulocyte rate increased significantly in the females of this group. |
| Red blood cell levels increased while reticulocyte, megakarocytes, and platelet numbers decreased. |
