Title

I guess I'm not sure how to do it, but I just tried to retitle this page as "Erythrocyte fragility," for 3 reasons: 1) to clarify what kind of cells' fragility are being described, particularly for a generalist audience, 2) to allow people to include/add discussion of other less-prevalent (non-osmotic) types of fragility (e.g., mechanical), and 3) to be phrased in parallel fashion to the page on "Erythrocyte deformability," which is a related membrane property often studied together with one or more kinds of fragility. Hence, I believe such a title change is warranted.67.194.192.194 (talk) 20:19, 18 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
