Abstract
A method of producing low hemoglobin concentration cell percentage (LHCC %) and the method of use for detection of iron deficiency have been disclosed. LHCC % is a sigmoid function of mean cell hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), which correlates linearly with hypochromic red cell percentage.
