There is a gradual change in the sensitivity of erythrocytes to sodium nitrite solutions during childhood and a very rapid increase in resistance at about the time of puberty. This change seems to be due to the gradual replacement of sensitive cells by cells of increased resistance. The mechanism of the change is unknown.
