PPT-Red Blood Cell Disorders

Introduction Red blood cells are characterized by a biconcave shape aids efficient navigation through narrow vessels Surface antigens on red blood cells determine individual blood types Lack of nucleus and organelles enables high hemoglobin concentration for oxygen transport. Healthy red blood cells are round and they move through small blood vessels carrying oxygen to all parts of the body In SCD the red blood cells become hard and sticky and look like a Cshaped farm tool called a sickle Sickle cells die early which cau 7 micrometres. diameter. 2 micrometres. thick.
