Estimation of Serum Haemoglobin-binding Capacity (haptoglobin) on Sephadex G.100.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method is described for the estimation of serum haptoglobin as ;haemoglobin-binding capacity'. The method relies on column chromatographic separation of the haemoglobin/haptoglobin complex from excess added free haemoglobin on the dextran gel Sephadex G.100. The method is simple and reproducible, and correlates well with another method of estimating haemoglobin-binding capacity over a wide range of values.

Vol. 72 ESTIMATION AND PURIFICATION OF HAPTOGLOBINS
1. A procedure for the rapid, accurate estimation of haptoglobin in serum and purified preparations is described, based on the peroxidase activity of haemoglobin in its complexes with haptoglobin. 2. Hydrogen peroxide, guaiacol and methaemoglobin reagents are used, under well-defined conditions which reduce the peroxidase activity of free haemoglobin essentially to zero. The reaction is followe...
متن کاملDetermination of serum haptoglobin reference value in clinically healthy Iranian fat-tailed sheep
Blood samples were collected from the jugular vein of 101 clinically healthy Iranian fat-tailed sheep according to their age (5 years) and sex. Serum haptoglobin (Hp) was measured based upon the preservation of the peroxidase activity of haemoglobin, which is directly proportional to the amount of Hp. The reference value for serum Hp of apparently healthy Iranian fat-tailed sheep was 0.05-0.18 ...

متن کاملHydroxyl-radical formation during prostaglandin formation catalysed by prostaglandin cyclo-oxygenase [proceedings].
The results indicate that haptoglobin may account for at least part of the inhibitor activity of plasma or serum. This seems to be consistent with the finding that administration of glucocorticoids in rats induced parallel changes in plasma inhibitor activity and haptoglobin concentration. However, no clear relationship between the haptoglobin concentration and the inhibitory actions of several...
متن کاملSeasonal Childhood Anaemia in West Africa Is Associated with the Haptoglobin 2-2 Genotype
BACKGROUND Anaemia is a major cause of morbidity and mortality for children in Africa. The plasma protein haptoglobin (Hp) binds avidly to free haemoglobin released following malaria-induced haemolysis. Haptoglobin polymorphisms result in proteins with altered haemoglobin-binding capacity and different antioxidant, iron-recycling, and immune functions. Previous studies examined the importance o...
