General description
Hemoglobin is the major component of red blood cells, and is responsible for their red color. Its normal concentration in erythrocytes is 34%. Hemoglobin is the most important respiratory protein of vertebrates by virtue of its ability to transport oxygen from the lungs to body tissues, and to facilitate the return transport of carbon dioxide.
has not been tested for functional equivalence against native preparations (unlyophilized ferrous hemoglobins).
Application
Hemoglobin A0 was used to see how coronary intraplaque hemorrhage evokes a novel atheroprotective macrophage phenotype.[1] It was used in the determination of fetal hemoglobin by time-resolved immunofluorometric assay.[2]
Hemoglobin A0, ferrous stabilized human has been used:
- as the non-fluorescent absorber in the preparation of tissue-mimicking phantoms
- to see how coronary intraplaque hemorrhage evokes a novel atheroprotective macrophage phenotype
- to study the interference of hemoglobin (Hb) A0, HbA2, and HbS in the assay of HbF[2]
Biochem/physiol Actions
Variation in the haemoglobin (Hb) encoding genes results in haemoglobinopathies such as thalassaemia and atypical structural variants like Hb Lepore and HbE.
Packaging
Package size indicates the amount of hemoglobin as determined by the procedure of Drabkin, D.L., J. Biol. Chem., 164, 703 (1946).
Preparation Note
When reconstituted with buffer, gives >85% ferrous hemoglobin.

-
Which the buffer solution can dissolve it, how to prepare the buffer solution? After dissolving, how to store and what is the stability?
1 answer-
This product is soluble in water up to 20 mg/mL. Alternatively, a buffer such as phosphate-buffered saline at a neutral pH can be used. Stability in solution has not been tested.

-
From which buffer was Product H0267 lyophilized? Did this buffer contain primary amines?
1 answer-
Before lyophilyzation, ficoll & sucrose are added stabilizers & the hemoglobin is dialyzed against 25 mM ammonium bicarbonate containing 0.1 mM EDTA. It is expected that after lyophilization, there should be virtually no or substantially reduced ammonium bicarbonate. Stabilizers are the major components of the final product.

What is the molecular weight of H0267 Hemoglobin A0?
1 answer-
Sigma has not evaluated the molecular weight of hemoglobin. Based on the reported sequence and including the weight of the 4 heme groups and 4 iron atoms, the molecular weight is approximately 64,677 Daltons. The Structure and Action of Proteins, p. 52, Harper and Row (1969).

How can Product H0267, Hemoglobin A0, be dissolved?
1 answer-
Hemoglobin is soluble in water at 20 mg/mL. Solutions in phosphate buffer at about neutral pH can also be prepared.

-
What is the solution stability of Product H0267, Hemoglobin A0?
1 answer-
Solutions of ferrous hemoglobin are not stable indefinitely due to the likely autoxidation of the heme group leading to the formation of the ferric derivative (methemoglobin). It is recommended to prepare solutions fresh in deaerated water or buffer. If necessary, store such prepared solutions no more than 1-2 days at 2-8°C.

What is the structure of Product H0267, Hemoglobin A0?
1 answer-
Hemoglobin A0 is the major hemoglobin protein of adult hemoglobin. It is a tetrameric protein consisting of 2 alpha and 2 beta chains, each of which contains a heme moiety and iron.
