The cells develop in the bone marrow and circulate for about 100â120 days in the body before their components are recycled by macrophages. Each circulation takes about 20 seconds. Approximately a quarter of the cells in the human body are red blood cells.n humans, mature red blood cells are flexible and oval biconcave disks. They lack a cell nucleus and most organelles, in order to accommodate maximum space for hemoglobin. Approximately 2.4 million new erythrocytes are produced per second in human adults.
(9) concluded from a mathematical analysis of their data that red blood. cells live for approximately 120 days. Measurement of the time required. for the disappearance of sulfhemoglobin from the blood of cyanosed workers. (10) indicated the life span of the red blood cell to be 115 days. Hawkins. and Whipple (11) by another technique obtained a value of 124 days for the. dog erythrocyte. Glycine has been shown to be a nitrogenous precursor of the protoporphy-. rin of hemoglobin in the rat (12).
