  • Title: Higher oxygen affinity of sheep Hb C compared to Hb A and Hb B.
    Author: Vaccaro-Torracca AM, Vestri R, Salmaso S.
    Journal: Experientia; 1980 May 15; 36(5):559-60. PubMed ID: 7379951.
    Abstract:
    Sheep which have Hb A, synthesize the perinatal Hb C in response to severe tissue hypoxia. It is known that Hb A displays a higher oxygen affinity than Hb B. The results of this study indicate that Hb C exhibits an oxygen affinity and a Bohr effect higher than those of Hb A and Hb B.
