Mean hematological and iron parameters in ID and IR mice.

ID indicates iron deficient; IR, iron replete; LPS, lipopolysaccharide; Hgb, hemoglobin; Hct, hematocrit; MCV, mean corpuscular volume; MCH, mean corpuscular hemoglobin; WBC, white blood cell; TS, transferrin saturation; and LIC, liver iron concentration.
