Hemolytic Hemosiderin

Spleen weight effects, spleen congestion, spleen and bone marrow hematopoiesis, and hemosiderin pigmentation in the spleen are probably related to hemolytic effects of 2-butoxyethanol, which are discussed in Section 2.2.2.2 under Hematological Effects. 

Hemoglobin breakdown is covered in the section on hemolytic anemias. The released iron is not excreted, but is stored in the form of ferritin or hemosiderin.
