The Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration (MCHC) Calculator measures the average concentration of hemoglobin in a given volume of red blood cells. It helps assess the hemoglobin density in RBCs and diagnose anemia types.
Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration (MCHC) is the average hemoglobin concentration per unit volume of red blood cells, expressed in grams per deciliter (g/dL).
Purpose
- Helps classify anemia (hypochromic, normochromic, hyperchromic).
- Evaluates hemoglobin packing efficiency in RBCs.
- Used with MCH and MCV for complete blood analysis.
Formula
MCHC (g/dL) = Hemoglobin (g/dL) Hematocrit (HCT) % x 100
How to Use the MCHC Calculator
- Enter Hemoglobin (Hb) level in g/dL.
- Input Hematocrit (Hct) percentage.
- Click Calculate to get MCHC value in g/dL.
🧮 MCHC Calculator (Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration)
📐 Formula:
MCHC (g/dL) =
Hemoglobin (g/dL)
Hematocrit (HCT) %
x 100
Hemoglobin in g/dL, Hematocrit in %
Normal MCHC Value
- Adults & Children: 32 – 36 g/dL
- Newborns: Slightly higher (up to 38 g/dL)
Excluded Conditions
- High MCHC (>36 g/dL): Spherocytosis, dehydration, hereditary conditions.
- Low MCHC (<32 g/dL): Iron deficiency anemia, thalassemia.
