Hemoglobin (Hb) i n solution is capable of transporting oxygen and could thus be considered as an ideal red cell substitute. However, i t presents two important drawbacks : a short vascular retention time and a high oxygen affinity. Chemical modifications
Long-term preservation of hemoglobin (Hb) vesicles, the so-called artificial red cell (ARC), in dry powder was studied. Carbonylhemoglobin (COHb) was encapsulated in the vesicle of 1,2-bis(2,4-octadecadienoyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DODPC) and the polymerizable membrane components were polymer
