Neohemoglobins and Cross-Linked Hemoglobins as Blood Substitutes.

Abstract

We have investigated the effect of specific cross-linking of beta subunits in bovine hemoglobins. It appears that both techniques can be utilized for obtaining products potentially useful as oxygen carriers in resuscitative fluids. Keywords: Dibromosalicylic-acid; Intramolecular-crosslink; Blood substitutes; Neohemoglobins.
