Proteins involved in a structural transition detected in red blood cell membranes at 40ยฐC by spin labeling methods have been investigated. Antibodies specific for spectrin, band 3, and protein 4.1 have been used as specific probes to modify membrane thermotropic properties. Spectrin seems to be invo
## Abstract Red blood cells (RBCs) are prone to lipid peroxidation by virtue of their function as oxygen carriers, and also because of their lipid composition. Malondialdehyde (MDA) content using thiobarbituric reagent is widely used to quantify lipid peroxidation. In this study we compare MDA assa
