摘要:
A method for producing a stable polymerized hemoglobin blood-substitute from blood. The method of this invention includes mixing blood with an anticoagulant to form a blood solution, washing the red blood cells in the blood solution and then separating the washed red blood cells from the white blood cells. This method also includes disrupting the red blood cells to release hemoglobin and form a hemoglobin solution, which is then treated by high performance liquid chromatography to form a hemoglobin eluate. The hemoglobin eluate is then deoxygenated, contacted with a first sulfhydryl compound to form an oxidation-stabilized deoxygenated hemoglobin solution, and mixed with a cross-linking agent to form a polymerization reaction mixture, which is then polymerized. The polymerized hemoglobin solution is then diafiltered with a physiologic solution and with a sulfhydryl compound, whereby the polymerized hemoglobin solution is made physiologically acceptable, and whereby the sulfhydryl compound scavenges oxygen, to form a stable polymerized hemoglobin blood-substitute.
摘要:
A method for producing a purified hemoglobin product includes loading a hemoglobin solution onto an anion exchange chromatography column. At least one tris(hydroxymethyl) aminomethane acetate buffer solution is injected into the column. The buffer solution has a pH lower than that of the column, whereby a purified hemoglobin product elutes from the column. In one embodiment, the hemoglobin solution initially can be equilibrated at a pH of greater than about 8.7. In another embodiment, contaminants can be removed by equilibrating the column with at least about eleven column void volumes of buffer solution at an intermediate pH of between about 8.2 and about 8.6, to thereby form a stepped pH gradient. In still another embodiment, all buffer solutions employed are tris(hydroxymethyl) aminomethane acetate.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of therapeutically, or prophylactically, treating a vertebrate to increase tissue oxygenation, or maintain issue oxygenation, in tissue of a vertebrate wherein the tissue has a reduced red blood cell flow, and wherein the vertebrate has a normovolemic blood volume and at least a normal systemic vascular resistance. The method comprises introducing into the circulatory system of the vertebrate at least one dose of hemoglobin.

摘要:
A blood substitute and plasma expander comprising a cross-linked, substantially endotoxin-free hemoglobin solution and process for preparing same. The process comprises fractionating whole blood, separating out a stromal-free, sterile hemoglobin solution, chromatographically separating endotoxins from said hemoglobin solution and crosslinking the resulting endotoxin-free hemoglobin solution.
