Summary

THE PERMEABILITY OF SODIUM, MAGNESIUM, AND CALCIUM FROM RED CELLS OF BLOOD, WHICH HAD BEEN STORED AT 277 K (4 DEG C) FOR UP TO 6 WEEKS IN ANTI-COAGULANT MEDIA, HAS BEEN MEASURED. THE PERMEABILITY OF CALCIUM INCREASED SEVERAL FOLD EVEN AFTER 3 DAYS STORAGE. NO CHANGE FOR MAGNESIUM AND SODIUM. PASSIVE INFLUX OF CALCIUM WAS MEASURED AT 310 K (37 DEG C) AND WAS UP TO FIVE FOLD GREATER FOR COLD STORED ERYTHROCYTES THAN FOR FRESH CELLS. C.R.F.
