This paper reports an in vivo study on the biophysics characteristics of reticulocytes. Anemia was induced by injection of phenylhydrazine in rabbits. The measurements, including electrophoresis rate, hematolytic rate, fluorescent polarization and the changing anisotropic value, were performed in vivo for 72 hours in the process of reticulocytes growing into erythrocytes. It was shown that there were obvious changes in the biophysics characteristics of reticulocytes in this course. Therefore, the findings are of significance to basic, theoretical and clinical studies.
