Hemoglobin Derivatives in Beef Irradiated with Accelerated Electrons
The efficiency of food irradiation depends on the accuracy of the irradiation dose range that is sufficient for inhibiting microbiological growth without causing an irreversible change to the physical and chemical properties of foods. This study suggests

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,

Carboxyhemoglobin and Methemoglobin in Asthma [PDF]
Nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide (CO) are synthesized at high levels in asthmatic airways. NO can oxidize hemoglobin (Hb) to methemoglobin (MetHb). CO binds to heme to produce carboxyhemoglobin (COHb). We hypothesized that MetHb and COHb may be increased in asthma.

Direct hemoglobin measurement by monolithically integrated optical beam guidance [PDF]
We present a concept for optical beam guidance by total internal reflection (TIR) at V-grooves as retro reflectors which are monolithically integrated on a microfluidic "lab-on-a-disk".

Blue cures blue but be cautious
Methemoglobinemia is a disorder characterized by the presence of >1% methemoglobin (metHb) in the blood. Spontaneous formation of methemoglobin is normally counteracted by protective enzyme systems, for example, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide ...

SYNTHESIS, CHARECTERIZATION AND ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY OF BIS [4-(4'-HYDROXY-3'-METHOXY BENZYLIDENE AMINO PHENYL)] TELLURIDE [PDF]
Bis[4-(4'-hydroxy-3'-methoxy benzylidene amino phenyl)] telluride (R2Te) was prepared from the reaction of two moles of 4-(4'-hydroxy-5'-methoxybenzylidene amino phenyl) mercuric chloride and one mole of TeBr 4 in dry dioxane to give

Breaking Free from Your Fetal Chains: A Case-Based Review of the Literature on Gamma Chain Variant Hemoglobinopathies [PDF]
Methemoglobinemia is a dyshemoglobinemia characterized by cyanosis and reduced oxygen saturation with increased methemoglobin values. The etiology may be congenital or acquired, with the latter being more common.

Physical and chemical processes and the morphofunctional characteristics of human erythrocytes in hyperglycaemia [PDF]
Background: This study examines the effect of graduated hyperglycaemia on the state and oxygen-binding ability of hemoglobin, the correlation of phospholipid fractions and their metabolites in the membrane, the activity of proteolytic enzymes and the ...

Interactions of Solvent with the Heme Region of Methemoglobin and Fluoro-Methemoglobin
It is now more than 20 years since Davidson and collaborators (1957, Biochim. Biophys, Acta. 26:370-373; J. Mol. Biol. 1:190-191) applied the theoretical ideas of Bloembergen et al. (1948. Phys. Rev. 73:679-712) on outer sphere magnetic relaxation of solvent protons to studies of solutions of methemoglobin. From then on, there has been debate regarding
