Term Description

The hemoglobin content of RBCs (MCH) has long been one of the indices reported as part of the complete blood count. However, mature erythrocytes are not sensitive to recent iron homeostasis. The hemoglobin content of reticulocytes, RBC precursors, has more recently been proposed as a better indicator of iron deficiency and early response to iron therapy (Am J Hematol. 2008 Apr;83(4):307-10.)
