Background: Hemoconcentration (HC) has been suggested to be a useful biomarker for determination of optimum diuretic therapy in acute heart failure (HF), but role of this factor in rehospitalization and death was still controversial.

Conformational studies of various hemoglobins by natural-abundance 13C NMR spectroscopy [PDF]
Studies of variously liganded hemoglobins (both from human and rabbit) by natural-abundance 13C NMR spectroscopy have revealed apparent conformational differences that have been interpreted on the basis of two quaternary structures for the α2ß2 tetramer,

CRYSTALLOGRAPHIC STUDIES OF FISH HEMOGLOBINS
The present work reports our succesfull experience concerning crystallization of four fish hemoglobins from three Brazilian species of Teleosts: Liposarcus anisitsi, Brycon cephalus and Piaractus mesopotamicus. The data shown here is part of a systematic

The primary structure of three hemoglobin chains from the indigo snake (Drymarchon corais erebennus, Serpentes): First evidence for αD chains and two β chain types in snakes [PDF]
The hemoglobin of the indigo snake (Drymarchon corais erebennus, Colubrinae) consists of two components, HbA and HbD, in the ratio of 1:1. They differ in both their alpha and beta chains.

The Influence of Body Size and Hemoglobin Multiplicity on Critical Oxygen Threshold in Red Drum (Sciaenops ocellatus) [PDF]
Hypoxia is common in marine environments and fishes use a suite of cardiorespiratory adjustments to defend aerobic metabolism, including reducing standard metabolic rate (SMR), the minimum metabolic rate needed to sustain life at a specified temperature,

Iron status among blood donors deferred due to low haemoglobin level [PDF]
Background/Aim. Haemoglobin (Hb) determination is a routine part of the blood donor selection process. Previously reported studies have revealed that iron deficiency is common in frequent donors. This prospective investigation was aimed at examining iron

In vitro determination of hemoglobin A1c for diabetes diagnosis and management: technology update [PDF]
It is fascinating to consider the analytical improvements that have occurred since glycated hemoglobin was first used in routine clinical laboratories for diabetes monitoring around 1977; at that time methods displayed poor precision, there were no ...
