Description

Hemoglobin Tampa is a specific, well-characterized variant of hemoglobin, a critical oxygen-transporting metalloprotein found in red blood cells. This product is essential for biochemical research, diagnostic development, and as a reference standard in clinical and pharmaceutical laboratories. It is particularly valuable for scientists and manufacturers in the fields of hematology, clinical diagnostics, and biopharmaceutical research who require high-purity, consistent hemoglobin derivatives for their work.

Application

• Biochemical Research: Used as a model protein for studying oxygen binding kinetics, protein stability, and heme-protein interactions.
• Diagnostic Reagent Manufacturing: Serves as a key component or calibrator in the production of in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) kits for blood gas analysis and hemoglobinopathy testing.
• Reference Standard: Acts as a certified reference material (CRM) for quality control and method validation in clinical laboratories.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Investigated in research for potential applications in oxygen therapeutics and blood substitutes.
• Educational Purposes: Supplied to academic institutions for teaching advanced concepts in biochemistry and physiology.
