Abstract:
Calcium nitrate and urea were fed as a supplement on an isonitrogenous basis to Angus steers and their erythrocytic methaemoglobin concentrations and NADH- and NADPH-methaemoglobin reductase levels were measured over a 54-day period. Methaemoglobin concentrations remained elevated despite increases in NADH-methaemoglobin reductase activity. In a second experiment, Brahman cross steers were fed either calcium nitrate or urea supplements for 111 days. Blood cells were then taken, washed and exposed to sodium nitrite to convert all haemoglobin to methaemoglobin. The rates of glycolysis and methae

Abstract:
Methylene blue, at high concentrations, interferes with the estimation of methaemoglobin using the IL 282 CO-oximeter: the dye does not interfere with the method of Evelyn & Malloy for determination of methaemoglobin. In beagle bitches methylene blue causes both methaemoglobinogenesis and methaemoglobin reduction, the effect of the former being to delay the decline of methaemoglobin levels, when methylene blue is used to reverse the methaemoglobinaemia produced by sodium nitrite.

Oral dosing of rats with the cyanide antidote 4-aminopropiophenone (PAPP), brought about peak methaemoglobin levels at 15-40 min, but peak levels were attained at 15-25 min after intravenous dosing. After both oral and intravenous administration at equimolar doses, 4-(N-hydroxy)aminopropiophenone (PHAPP), the putative methaemoglobin-producing metabolite of PAPP, produced higher peak levels of methaemoglobin than PAPP. Plasma from rats injected with PAPP was capable of forming methaemoglobin when added to naive rat erythrocytes. The identity of the metabolite responsible is discussed.

After repeated catalytic cycles the rapid decreasing of superoxide anion radical content was observed.

Oxyhaemoglobin reacts with low concentrations of H2O2 to form a ‘reactive species’ that degrades deoxyribose but does not hydroxylate phenylalanine.

Methaemoglobinaemia is a rare disease that is typically caused by a medication or other exogenous agent, with dapsone being the most common. It occurs when the concentration of methaemoglobin rises via ferrous haeme irons becoming oxidised to the ferric state, which shifts the oxygen dissociation curve to the left. The net result of an elevated methaemoglobin concentration is functional anaemia and impaired oxygen delivery to tissues. At lower blood levels, this can cause symptoms such as cyanosis, lethargy, headache and fatigue, whereas at higher levels it can be fatal. Here we discuss a subt

Abstract:
Methaemoglobinaemia is a life-threatening condition that results from increased methaemoglobin production. As methaemoglobin is unable to reversibly bind to oxygen potentially lethal hypoxia and functional anaemia can occur. Benzocaine can be used as a topical anaesthetic and can be found in many nonprescription preparations marketed for self-application. It is known to cause methaemoglobinaemia in rare cases but most reports describe the complication occurring during endoscopy procedures. Methaemoglobinaemia occurring after topical benzocaine use on the perineum of a perimenopausal woman is e

Abstract:
This article reviews the role of free radicals in causing oxidative stress during exercise. High intensity exercise induces oxidative stress and although there is no evidence that this affects sporting performance in the short term, it may have longer term health consequences. The mechanisms of exercise-induced oxidative stress are not well understood. Mitochondria are sometimes considered to be the main source of free radicals, but in vitro studies suggest they may play a more minor role than was first thought. There is a growing acceptance of the importance of haem proteins in inducing oxida

Abstract:
Soot is a mass of impure particles of carbon obtained from incomplete hydrocarbon combustion. Soot is an ultrafine air-borne pollutant and enters into the body through ingestion, skin contact and inhalation causing devastating effects on the blood cells. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of soot inhalation on methaemoglobin and oxyhaemoglobin levels of individuals resident in both Iwofe, Port Harcourt (exposed subjects) and Ihiala, Anambra state (control subjects). The study is a case control study involving residents of Iwofe, Rumuolumeni, who have been exposed to soot pollutio

To determine the percentages of carboxyhaemoglobin (COHb) and methaemoglobin (MeHb) in donor blood and to compare these levels between smokers and nonsmokers at different time points during blood storage. Blood donors were recruited from Haematology Service, University Hospital Alzira Velano, Alfenas-MG. The blood was kept in collecting ducts (noodles) containing citrate, phosphate and dextrose (CPD) and stored at 4°C throughout the storage period. Since the noodles kept the characteristics of the bags, COHb and MeHb levels were analysed on the day of donation and after 20 days of storage. Lev

Abstract:
Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) were exposed to nitrite (0.007 mmol NO2- · L-1) for 48 days. During the first 14 days, the methaemoglobin concentration in the blood as well as the NO2- and NO3- concentrations in the plasma increased whereas further days of exposure led to a decrease in the nitrite, nitrate, and methaemoglobin concentrations in the blood. Isolated erythrocytes from rainbow trout have the ability to detoxify nitrite by oxidation to nitrate, thus removing this compound from the blood. This process is dependent on oxygen loading of haemoglobin and on the nitrite concentration
