title: Haematological parameters in the healthy adult Egyptian population.
abstract: Haemoglobin parameters, serum iron and the levels of haemoglobins A2 and F were examined in normal unrelated adult Egyptians (60 males and 142 females). The mean red cell volume and the mean red cell haemoglobin are low. Haemoglobin A2 in Egyptian adult males is slightly less than that in females.
