  2. Bohr effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohr_effect

    The Bohr effect increases the efficiency of oxygen transportation through the blood. After hemoglobin binds to oxygen in the lungs due to the high oxygen concentrations, the Bohr effect facilitates its release in the tissues, particularly those tissues in most need of oxygen. When a tissue's metabolic rate increases, so does its carbon dioxide ...

  3. Oxygen–hemoglobin dissociation curve - Wikipedia

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

    This is known as the Bohr effect. [4] A reduction in the total binding capacity of hemoglobin to oxygen (i.e. shifting the curve down, not just to the right) due to reduced pH is called the root effect. This is seen in bony fish. The binding affinity of hemoglobin to O 2 is greatest under a relatively high pH.

  4. Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypoxic_pulmonary...

    Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV), also known as the Euler–Liljestrand mechanism, is a physiological phenomenon in which small pulmonary arteries constrict in the presence of alveolar hypoxia (low oxygen levels).

  5. Bohr–Sommerfeld model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohr–Sommerfeld_model

    The theory would have correctly explained the Zeeman effect, except for the issue of electron spin. Sommerfeld's model was much closer to the modern quantum mechanical picture than Bohr's. In the 1950s Joseph Keller updated Bohr–Sommerfeld quantization using Einstein's interpretation of 1917, [6] now known as Einstein–Brillouin–Keller method.

    The Nature and Significance of the Bohr Effect in Mammalian Hemoglobins Austen Riggs The Journal of General Physiology(43)737-52. Since that review, work has been completed that identified amino acid side chains in at least human and lamprey hemoglobins that contribute to the Bohr effect in these proteins. There are many studies including this one

  8. Bohr model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohr_model

    II:106 Although Bohr's model would also rely on just the electron to explain the spectrum, he did not assume an electrodynamical model for the atom. The other important advance in the understanding of atomic spectra was the Rydberg–Ritz combination principle which related atomic spectral line frequencies to differences between 'terms ...
