Aggregation of hemoglobin S and hemoglobin CHarlem with nonsickle hemoglobin in concentrated phosphate buffer [PDF]
Blood, 1980 Abstract The effect of HbA and HbF on both the aggregation and deaggregation of deoxy HbS and deoxy HbCHarlem in concentrated phosphate buffers was studied by a turbidimetric method. Although pure deoxy HbA is fully soluble in 2.4 M potassium phosphate buffer, the same concentration of deoxy HbAS was insoluble in the same buffer.
