Udgivelsesdato: 1995-Aug-11 As in other fish, the cathodic hemoglobin of the eel Anguilla anguilla is considered to play an important role in oxygen transport under hypoxic and acidotic conditions. In the absence of phosphates this hemoglobin shows a reverse Bohr effect and high oxygen affinity, whi...
