Stress erythropoiesis was induced in rats and guinea-pigs by graded amounts of bleeding and phenyl-hydrazine administration. Hemoglobin and DNA content was measured by microspectrophometry of single erythroblasts in the process of nuclear extrusion. DNA content was always 2 C. Hemoglobin content was in all cases superior to the normal value, occasionally reaching a value of almost twice normal.
