Anemia is a blood disorder characterized by deficient red blood cells (RBCs) . Anemia can be caused by congenital disorders; blood loss; nutrient deficiencies; inadequate RBC production; and increased destruction or lysis of RBCs. In lysis or hemolysis, the term used for lysis of RBCs, the cell's outer membrane is ruptured. Hemolysis releases hemoglobin, the blood protein that carries oxygen to tissues, from RBCs, destroying them. Normally, RBCs survive for about 120 days and then begin to disintegrate.
