Blood and Drabkins Reagent (RBCs lysed and Hgb released) Hgb oxidized to methoglobin by K ferricyanide Resulting pigment converted to stable cyanmethoglobin by Kcyanide Absorption of pigment measured photometrically at 540nm Concentration of Hgb is directly proportional to optical density of solution
Hemoglobin is the name of a protein that is found in red blood cells, which has the capacity to absorb and release oxygen.

This test requires a blood sample. No special preparation is needed before the test.
Hgb means hemoglobin
Is mean corpuscular hgb level 28.2 ok?
OMG HGB DVD ROTFL was created on 2005-11-22.
Hemoglobin is on RBCs, not WBCs. Hemoglobin picks up CO2 from cells and takes it to the lungs, where it releases CO2 and picks up O2. Anemia can reduce available Hgb in the bloodstream. So can any illness, condition, or disease which affects RBC production.
Hgb=hct/3 x 10 g/dL Hct(%)= hgb x 3
