Haemoglobin in male Daphnia magna

1. 1. To define the respiratory function of haemoglobin in male Daphnia magna, the swimming activity, the depression of oxygen uptake by treatment with carbon monoxide and in vivo oxygenation of Hb at various oxygen pressures were investigated. 2. 2. The P 50, values for the purified Hbs from male a...

Summary:1. 1. To define the respiratory function of haemoglobin in male Daphnia magna, the swimming activity, the depression of oxygen uptake by treatment with carbon monoxide and in vivo oxygenation of Hb at various oxygen pressures were investigated. 2. 2. The P 50, values for the purified Hbs from male and female red animals were 2.0 and 2.7 torr in 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.2) at 20°C, respectively. 3. 3. The isoelectric focusing patterns of the purified Hbs from male and female red animals showed only small differences in Hb components of high PI values.
