A rapid, new method to measure hemoglobin-oxygen equilibrium curves is described using the protocatechuic acid/protocatechuic acid 3,4-dioxygenase system [C. Bull and D. P. Ballou (1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 12673-12680] to deoxygenate hemoglobin solutions enzymatically. The reaction is followed by s

## FOUR FIGUKES Various extracellular annelid hemoglobins are very similar with regard to molecular weight, amino acid composition, solubility, and isoelectric point (reviewed : Lemberg and Legge, '49; Prosser, '50; Eliassen, ' 5 3 ) . It is reasonable to wonder if this similarity extends to other
Objective: Our purpose was to determine the effect of meconium-stained amniotic fluid on the hemoglobinoxygen association curve of maternal whole blood. Methods: Whole blood was obtained from term gravidas in active labor. Hemoglobin-oxygen association curves were generated for blood incubated with
## ONE FIGURE I n contrast to the remainder of the Echinodermata, in which there is but a single instance of the occurrence of a respiratory pigment (Hyman, '55), hemoglobin occurs in erythrocytes in representatives of at least three of the 5 orders of holothurians : Cucumaria minintn (Crescitelli
