Specification

• Cat#: THP-145
• Product Name: Native Bovine Erythrocytes Hemoglobin
• Description: Hemoglobin is found in the erythrocytes of all vertebrates. It is a conjugated protein with the prosthetic group heme which contains iron.

The iron in heme is in the ferrous state. In oxyhemoglobin, it is apparently still in the ferrous state, but the oxygen is loosely bound to it.
