Application
The solubility of α-elastin has been applied to construction of elastin-mimetic biomaterials.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Oxygen transporter. The Fe2+/Fe3+ balance is a physiological indicator of blood oxygenation; deoxygenated hemoglobin accessorizes a feedback loop by reducing nitrite to NO, a vasodilator which enhances blood flow to oxygen-deprived tissues.
Quality
Methemoglobin and oxyhemoglobin content is not determined.
Caution
Since native hemoglobin is readily oxidized in air, these preparations may be predominantly methemoglobin.
