NRBC stands for nucleated red blood cells, which are typically not present in the bloodstream of healthy adults. A result of 0.000 NRBC in blood tests indicates that there are no detectable nucleated red blood cells, suggesting normal bone marrow function and no significant hemolysis or serious underlying conditions. Elevated levels of NRBC can indicate issues such as severe anemia, hypoxia, or bone marrow stress, so a result of 0.000 is generally considered a positive finding.

Can EDTA degenerate nRBC?
Yes, EDTA can lead to degeneration of nucleated red blood cells (nRBCs) in a blood sample. EDTA acts as an anticoagulant by binding to calcium ions, which can cause nRBCs to swell, rupture, and lose their distinct morphology. This degeneration can make it challenging to accurately identify nRBCs in a blood smear.
What mammal has nucleated red blood cells?
Nearly all non-mammal vertebrates have nucleated red blood cells (nRBC). Non-nucleated RBC's are a unique feature to mammals. There are of course a few notable exceptions, such as the artiodactyl order, which have an odd blood morphology.
