The mean of blood indexes studied among samples based on donation type in the Kurdistan Organization of Blood Transfusion station in 2007.

In a one-way AN OVA test, there was a significant difference between Hb figure (P = 0.05), MCV (P = 0.006), TIBC (P = 0.03), serum iron (P = 0.000), serum ferritin (P = 0.000), and transferin saturation (P = 0.001) among donor based on type of donation.
