title: Hemolysis in vitro by sorbose, sorbitol and xylitol.
abstract: L-sorbose, xylitol and sorbitol solutions (56 mM) were not hemolytic when incubated with erythrocytes of 30 healthy volunteers, 14 thalassemic heterozygotes and in 30 horses, 30 cows and 30 Osborne-Mendel rats. Lysis of dog erythrocytes was most pronounced when incubated with L-sorbose but was also significant in xylitol and sorbitol solutions.
