Simplified determination of carboxyhemoglobin.
نویسندگان
چکیده
This spectrophotometric method for estimating carboxyhemoglobin is based on the production of a two-pigment mixture by reducing oxyhemoglobin and methemoglobin with sodium hydrosulfite . Absorbances of the pigment are measured at 420 and 432 nm. Protecting the solutions against exposure to air is unnecessary. Values are stable and reproducible when the solutions are buffered at pH 6.85.

A Three-Wavelength Pulse Oximeter for Carboxyhemoglobin Determination
Pulse oximetry measures the relative concentration of arterial oxygenated hemoglobin and reduced hemoglobin. This paper presents the design of a pulse oximeter, which measures the presence of a third substance, carboxyhemoglobin (HbCO), by unfiltered LEDs at 660 nm, 810 nm, and 940 nm. Background information is given on the theory of pulse oximetry. Theoretical approximations and calculations w...
متن کاملQuantitative determination of carbon monoxide in blood by gaschromatography.
The gaschromatographic determination of CO in blood has been simplified by using carbon molecular sieve columns for separation of gases. Regeneration of the columns is necessary only after 1000 and more analyses. Moreover, a more simple procedure for evaluating the CO concentration was developed. This procedure is suitable for routine determination in the sensitivity range of 0.2—100 % COHb in ...
متن کاملNew method for rapid determination of carboxyhemoglobin by use of double-wavelength spectrophotometry.
We have developed a simple method for rapid determination of carboxyhemoglobin concentration in blood, by use of double-wavelength spectrophotometry. The absorbance of both oxyhemoglobin and reduced hemoglobin are instrumentally nulled out in this procedure, so that the absorption signal reflects HbCO and only a single spectrophotometric reading is required. This procedure is accurate in the ra...
متن کاملCarboxyhemoglobin determination by second-derivative spectroscopy.
In this procedure hemoglobin is converted to its reduced form and the magnitude of the zero-order spectral shift of the reduced hemoglobin peak at 430 nm to the carboxyhemoglobin peak at 418 nm is determined by second-derivative spectrum analysis. The method is simple, straightforward to set up, and rapid. A result may be obtained within 15 min of receiving the sample. It is sufficiently sensit...
متن کاملKinetic aspects of cyanmethemoglobin formation from carboxyhemoglobin.
The conversionof carboxyhemoglobin(H bCO) to cyanmethemoglobin (M HbCN) by Drabkin’s reagent has been shown to be considerablyslower than is the same reaction with oxyhemoglobin(Hb02). Conversionof Hb02 to MHbCN is complete in 10 mm. whereas total conversionof HbCO requires 90-120 mm. This difference in reaction rate must be consideredin the determination of total hemoglobinas MHbCN when the bl...
