In experimental anemia produced by phenylhydrazine and acetyl‐phenylhydrazine, the volume of the average red corpuscle is increased. This change is associated with a disproportionate increase of the water content of the corpuscles. However, the swelling is accompanied by an increase, rather than by a decrease, of the cholesterol content of the corpuscles.
