Abstract As demonstrated by August Krogh et al. a century ago, the oxygen‐binding reaction
of vertebrate haemoglobin is cooperative (described by sigmoid O2 equilibrium curves) and …

Along with the periodic reductions in O 2 requirements of mammalian hibernators during
winter, the O 2 affinity of the blood of mammalian hibernators is seasonally regulated to help …

The inverse relationship between temperature and hemoglobin–O2 affinity resulting from the
exothermic nature of heme oxygenation favors O2 unloading from blood to warm …

The oxygenation enthalpy of the heme groups of hemoglobin (Hb) is inherently exothermic,
resulting in decreased Hb-O 2 affinity with rising temperature. However, oxygenation is …

Haemoglobins from mammals of sub-Arctic and Arctic species, as well as fetal human Hb,
are all characterized by a significantly lower Δ H of oxygenation compared with the majority …

During winter hibernation, brown bears (Ursus arctos) reduce basal O2 consumption rate
to∼ 25% compared with the active state, while body temperature decreases moderately …

Based on the exothermic nature of heme oxygenation, the O 2 affinity of hemoglobin (Hb)
decreases with increasing temperature, which may be physiologically advantageous in …

Miljødirektoratet har bestilt denne rapporten for å identifisere kunnskapshull vedrørende
rovvilt (gaupe, brunbjørn, ulv, jerv og kongeørn) i Skandinavia, med særlig fokus på …

The annual Congress of the Italian Biochemical and Molecular Biology Society (SIB) was
held in September 1999 in Alghero, Sardegna, Italy. The programme envisaged a …

The oxygen binding properties of hemoglobin and some hematological parameters in
Eskimo dogs (belonging to Canis lupus familiaris) in Ilulissat/Jacobshavn, Greenland were …
