Chlorpropamide, a sulfonylurea antidiabetic drug, was found to be the etiologic agent in a patient with immune hemolytic anemia. Hemolysis was severe, and ceased promptly when the drug was discontinued. The direct antiglobulin test was positive for complement, and the indirect antiglobulin test was
Empirical studies were conducted on how rates of hemolysis were influenced by mechanical factors, such as shear, turbulence, agitation, pressure fluctuation, and bubbling, in five types of experimental apparatus: rotating cylinder, rotating disks, agitated vessel, pressure pulsator, and bub-ble colu
Skate and stingray cells were shown to hemolyze in isosmotic solutions containing urea as the sole solute. The rate of urea penetration into these cells as determined by the rate of hemolysis is highly temperature dependent with a Qlo of 2.50-2.75. A reduced rate of methylurea penetration i n the pr
