Working against or preventing hemolysis, the breakdown or destruction of red blood cells.
From anti- (against) + hemolytic (relating to hemolysis, hemo- blood + lytic from 'lysis' breaking down). A medical term from hematology and immunology.
When blood transfusions go wrong, hemolysis can destroy the new red cells, which is why doctors match blood types carefully and may use antihemolytic compounds to protect the cells.
