Abstract :
A simple, inexpensive electro-optical instrument is described, by which the osmotic fragility curve of red blood cells, as obtained by gradually decreasing the salt concentration of the medium surrounding the cells, can be automatically recorded. Either the direct sigmoid curve or the derivative curve can be recorded.
