[Hemoglobin and hem protein complexes in mammal sera. 1. Starch gel electrophoretic studies]
Abstract:
In the sera pig, cattle, rabbit and guinea pig, only uniform Hemoglobin-Haptoglobin fraction but several heme-hemopexin fractions, could be demonstrated for each species in starch gel electrophoretic studies. Heme binding by albumin was also observed, though to a varying degree, being most pronounced for the guinea pig. The protection mechanism against hemoglobin and iron losses from the organism of the animals investigated allows far-reaching parallels with that of man.
