Application

Hemoglobin, Bovine Erythrocytes, CAS 9008-02-0, is an iron-containing oxygen-transport metalloprotein. Suitable as a substrate for proteases, such as papain, pepsin, and trypsin.

General description

Native hemoglobin from bovine erythrocytes. A major oxygen-transporting component of red blood cells that is also nitric oxide scavenger. Blocks carbachol-stimulated cGMP production. This preparation contains primarily Ferric-hemoglobin and must be reduced to the ferrous form to bind molecular oxygen. Note: this preparation contains primarily ferric-hemoglobin and must be reduced to the ferrous form to bind molecular oxygen.
