  2. Haldane effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haldane_effect

    In the oxygen-rich capillaries of the lung, this property causes the displacement of carbon dioxide to plasma as low-oxygen blood enters the alveolus and is vital for alveolar gas exchange. The general equation for the Haldane Effect is: H + + HbO 2 ⇌ H + Hb + O 2; However, this equation is confusing as it reflects primarily the Bohr effect.

  3. Blood-oxygen-level-dependent imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood-oxygen-level...

    Other methods which propose to measure neural activity directly have been attempted (for example, measurement of the Oxygen Extraction Fraction, or OEF, in regions of the brain, which measures how much of the oxyhemoglobin in the blood has been converted to deoxyhemoglobin [3]), but because the electromagnetic fields created by an active or ...

  4. Oxygen–hemoglobin dissociation curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen–hemoglobin...

    The oxygen–hemoglobin dissociation curve, also called the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve or oxygen dissociation curve (ODC), is a curve that plots the proportion of hemoglobin in its saturated (oxygen-laden) form on the vertical axis against the prevailing oxygen tension on the horizontal axis. This curve is an important tool for ...

  5. Haemodynamic response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haemodynamic_response

    The onset of neural activity leads to a systematic series of physiological changes in the local network of blood vessels that include changes in the cerebral blood volume per unit of brain tissue (CBV), changes in the rate of cerebral blood flow, and changes in the concentration of oxyhemoglobin and deoxyhemoglobin.

  6. Bohr effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohr_effect

    The magnitude of the Bohr effect is usually given by the slope of the ⁡ vs curve where, P 50 refers to the partial pressure of oxygen when 50% of haemoglobin's binding sites are occupied. The slope is denoted: Δ log ⁡ ( P 50 ) Δ pH {\textstyle {\scriptstyle \Delta \log(P_{50}) \over \Delta {\text{pH}}}} where Δ {\textstyle \Delta ...

  8. CO-oximeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CO-oximeter

    Finger tip carboxyhemoglobin saturation monitor.. A CO-oximeter is a device that measures the oxygen carrying state of hemoglobin in a blood specimen, including oxygen-carrying hemoglobin (O2Hb), non-oxygen-carrying but normal hemoglobin (HHb) (formerly, but incorrectly, referred to as 'reduced' hemoglobin), as well as the dyshemoglobins such as carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) and methemoglobin (MetHb).
