Unusual Volumetric Response of Human Red Blood Cells under Low Ionic Strength Conditions

Human red blood cells (RBCs) when suspended in a Low Ionic Strength medium (LIS) demonstrate characteristic triphasic shape changes (morphological response, MR) and become reduced in volume. Tahitian Tabari Noni juice (Tb), after being given during the terminal phase of MR, was shown to initiate an...
