These handwritten notes provide an in-depth review of erythrocyte structure and function with metabolic and pathologic associations. There is information about hemoglobin (form/oxygen interactions, glycosylation, stages, abnormalities), iron processing and incorporation, metabolic functions, cell indices (laboratory determinations), hemoglobinopathies, thalassemias, hemolytic pathways, cell morphologies (presentation, interpretation, and clinical implications), and inclusions (staining, analysis...
