The aggregative stability of human oxyhemoglobin in aqueous media in the presence of mercury(II) compounds]

The results are discussed of studies on oxyhemoglobin coagulation in neutral phosphate buffer and acidic acetate buffer at pH ranging from 5.85 to 4.90. Peculiarities are shown of the effect of strong complexon on the oxyhemoglobin-coagulum-mercuric acetate system in neutral tris-buffer. Coagulation characteristics are cited for polymeric oxyhemoglobin in presence of mercury ions.
