Study of polymerized hemoglobin in experiment.

Lyophilized polymerized hemoglobin has no group specificity and does not damage the kidney after 2 days of storage; its T/2 is 14-16 hours. P50 of solution prepared on the hemoglobin basis is 24-28 torr at 37 degrees C and pCO2, 40 torr in 0.05 M Tris-buffer, pH 7.
