PEGylation of αα-Hb using succinimidyl propionic acid PEG 5K: Conjugation chemistry and PEG shell structure dictate respectively the oxygen affinity and resuscitation fluid like properties of PEG αα-Hbs

Abstract: PEGylation of intramolecularly crosslinked Hb has been studied here to overcome the limitation of dissociation of Hb tetramers. New hexa and deca PEGylated low oxygen affi nity PEG-αα-Hbs have been generated. Infl uence of PEG conjugation chemistry and the PEG shell structure on the functional properties as well as PEGylation induced plasma expander like properties of the protein has been delineated. The results have established that in the design of PEG-Hbs as oxygen therapeutics, the infl uence of conjugatio… Show more

“…Consequently, red blood cell (RBC) substitutes for practical use are required as a medical measure to supplement blood transfusion treatment. Since the 1980s, hemoglobin (Hb)-based O 2 carriers (HBOCs) of several kinds have been prepared and clinically tested [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. Despite great efforts, none has been approved yet for commercial use as an RBC alternate.…”
