Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) is the average concentration of hemoglobin in red blood cells. It is a value you will see reported as part of a Complete Blood Count (CBC) test. MCHC is one of the red blood cell (RBC) indices, and it is used to help diagnose the type, cause, and severity of anemia. 1  Normal Range for MCHC: 32-36 grams/deciliter in adults. 2  A low MCHC means that there is less hemoglobin in each red cell regardless of the size of the red cell, known as hypochromia. It is seen in iron deficiency anemia and thalassemia. A high MCHC is known as hyperchromia, with a higher concentration of hemoglobin in each red cell than is normal.
