| Analysis Note: | These products are for test and assay use only. They are not meant for administration to humans or animals and cannot be used to diagnose, treat, or cure diseases of any kind. |
| 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. |
| Caution: | Since native hemoglobin is readily oxidized in air, these preparations may be predominantly methemoglobin. |
