What are the most blood cells?

Red blood cells are by far the most abundant cells in the blood. There are an average of 2,830,000 RBCs per cubic millimeter (microliter). RBCs account for approximately 40 to 45 percent of the blood. This percentage of blood made up of RBCs is a frequently measured number and is called the hematocrit. The ratio of cells in normal blood is 600 RBCs for each white blood cell and 40 platelets.

What happens if rbc's and saline solutions are mixed?

If red blood cells (RBCs) are mixed with a saline solution, the RBCs may undergo hemolysis, where they rupture and release their contents into the solution. This can lead to changes in the osmotic balance and potentially cause damage to the RBCs. It is important to handle RBCs carefully to prevent hemolysis and maintain their function.
