THE PHYSICS OF HEMOGLOBIN.

Abstract

Hemoglobin is discussed from the standpoint of its physical properties. These include structure, optical absorption spectra, electron spin resonance, magnetic susceptibility and Mossbauer resonance. The main emphasis is on the theoretical interpretation of the physical properties, in as quantitative a manner as possible, based on current molecular theory. Portions of the formalism of ligand field theory and molecular orbital theory are developed and applied to the various kinds of hemoglobins. (Author)
