GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
German term or phrase:mittl. Krrp. Hb-Konz.
English translation:Mean corpuscular Hb concentration

German term or phrase: mittl. Krrp. Hb-Konz.
From a list of laboratory values:

mittl. Krrp. Hb-Konz.: 20.7 mmol/l (20.0-22.0)

I thought of MCHC (Mean corpuscular Hb concentration), but from what I can see, MCHC is measured in g/dl, and a normal value is 32-36, so this doesn't fit with the figures given above.

The main question is the meaning of "Krrp."

Any ideas?
