Hemoglobin (sometimes abbreviated as Hb) is a complex protein found in red blood cells that contains an iron molecule. The main function of hemoglobin is to carry oxygen from the lungs to the body tissues, and to exchange the oxygen for carbon dioxide, and then carry the carbon dioxide back...
carry oxygen in the blood due to the presence of hemoglobin. A molecule is a combination ofatoms. An atom is the smallest part of a substance that can exist alone or in combination with something else. Hemoglobin is often analyzed along withhematocrit, ...
Hemoglobin is the oxygen-carrying pigment that gives blood its red color and is also the predominant protein in red blood cells. About 90% of hemoglobin is hemoglobin A (the "A" stands for adult type). Although one chemical component accounts for 92% of hemoglobin A, approximately 8% of ...

Hemoglobin Fort Gordon, α 2 β 2 145 Tyr → Asp (HC2), has been observed in a 20-year-old black male with compensatory erythrocytosis. The variant was readily identified by electrophoresis and chromatography, and comprised about 30% of the red cell hemoglobin. The substitution was identified...
Single-cell omics provide insight into cellular heterogeneity and function. Recent technological advances have accelerated single-cell analyses, but workflows remain expensive and complex. We present a method enabling simultaneous, ultra-high throug
This finding has relevant clinical implications, as diabetic patients have been found to have higher hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels over the winter months than during the warmer months36,37. Less is known about the effect of temperature on hospital admissions for arrhythmia. Until recently, two ...
During the present study, blood hemoglobin concentrations for both treatments were measured at levels above the normal range for rainbow trout; therefore, there was no evidence of a toxic effect of nitrite. In addition, total suspended solids concentrations were significantly greater within the high ...
Summary Introduction Among hemoglobin (Hb) H disease cases diagnosed by DNA testing in our hemoglobinopathy laboratory, we have noted instances of unreported Hb H from high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) results of referring laboratories. Methods To characterize these issues, we identified all...
