Soluble dextran-hemoglobin complex as a potential blood substitute.
A complex between soluble dextran and human hemoglobin has been synthesized by two different methods. In the alkylation method, hemoglobin was allowed to react with bromoacetyl groups incorporated into the dextran; the yield of the complex was about 80% in terms of the hemoglobin used. In the dialdehyde method, hemoglobin was allowed to react with dialdehyde groups on the dextran generated by p...
متن کاملImmune safety evaluation of polymerized porcine hemoglobin (pPolyHb): a potential red blood cell substitute.
Polymerized Porcine Hemoglobin (pPolyHb), a hemoglobin-based oxygen carrier (HBOC), was developed as a potential red blood substitute for clinical applications. Assessment of its effects on the immune system is an important component of the overall safety evaluation of HBOC. For this purpose, we assessed three inflammation indicators, including complement C3a, IL-6, and TNF-? in cultured cells ...
متن کاملArenicola marina extracellular hemoglobin: a new promising blood substitute.
The need to develop a blood substitute is now urgent because of the increasing concern over Europe's BSE outbreak and the worldwide HIV/AIDS epidemic, which have cut blood supplies. Extracellular soluble hemoglobin has long been studied for its possible use as a safe and effective alternative to blood transfusion, but this has met with little success. Clinical trials have revealed undesirable s...
متن کاملSafety Evaluation of Hemoglobin-Albumin Cluster “HemoAct” as a Red Blood Cell Substitute
A hemoglobin (Hb) wrapped covalently by human serum albumins (HSAs), a core-shell structured hemoglobin-albumin cluster designated as "HemoAct", is an O2-carrier designed for use as a red blood cell (RBC) substitute. This report describes the blood compatibility, hemodynamic response, and pharmacokinetic properties of HemoAct, and then explains its preclinical safety. Viscosity and blood cell c...
متن کاملEvolution of artificial cells using nanobiotechnology of hemoglobin based RBC blood substitute as an example.
The original artificial red blood cells have evolved into oxygen carriers in the form of polyhemoglobin and conjugated hemoglobin. Clinical conditions requiring only oxygen carriers are responding well to these types of oxygen carriers without the need for a complete artificial red blood cell. For those conditions requiring more than just oxygen carriers, new generations of polyhemoglobin conta...
