Description

Hemoglobin Columbia Missouri CAS NO 134604-90-3 is a highly purified, research-grade hemoglobin derivative, often sourced from bovine or porcine blood. This product is critical for biochemical research and diagnostic applications requiring a stable, well-characterized oxygen-carrying protein. It is primarily utilized by research institutions, diagnostic kit manufacturers, and biotechnology companies developing cell culture media, oxygen carriers, and calibration standards.

Application

• Biochemical Research: Used as a standard protein in studies of oxygen transport, ligand binding kinetics, and protein structure-function relationships.
• Diagnostic Reagents: Serves as a key component in the formulation of controls and calibrators for clinical hematology analyzers and blood gas instruments.
• Cell Culture & Fermentation: Employed as an oxygen carrier or additive in specialized mammalian cell culture systems and bacterial fermentation processes to enhance oxygen delivery.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Investigated in the research phase for potential use in hemoglobin-based oxygen carriers (HBOCs) and other therapeutic agents.
• Educational & Reference Material: Supplied to academic laboratories for teaching protein purification, spectroscopy, and enzymology principles.
• Food Science Research: Used in studies related to meat color chemistry and as a source of heme iron in nutritional research.
