Serum ferritins from a patient with haemochromatosis and from a patient with transfusional siderosis were compared with tissue isoferritins on the basis of their iron content, isoferritin spectrum and immunological properties. Both serum ferritins had a low iron content and corresponded to only the most basic isoferritins in liver. The serum ferritins were very similar to the natural apoferritin from liver in all respects.
Arosio et al. (Wed,) studied this question.
