Hemoglobin Content Assay kit

Hemoglobin (Hb) is a cofactor-containing protein with heme as prosthetic group, whichplaysan important role in transporting and storing oxygen. It is comprised of two alpha andtwobetachains. Each chain has a cyclic tetrapyrrole heme containing an iron atom. Oxygen binds toironatoms and is transported in the blood. The improved aqueous alkaline method is used to measure Hb concentration. Hb couldreactwith working solution to form colored compound, which has an absorption peak at 400nm.Changes of the absorbance at 400nm could be measured to reflect Hb content.
