Mouse Anti-Canine Hemoglobin Monoclonal Antibody-Detection

Canine hemoglobin (Hb) is a critical oxygen-carrying protein in dogs, similar to its role in humans. It is composed of four subunits, each with a heme group that binds to oxygen. Hemoglobin's function is to transport oxygen from the lungs to the tissues and return carbon dioxide back to the lungs for exhalation. Targeting canine hemoglobin is essential in veterinary medicine for diagnosing and treating conditions that affect oxygen transport, such as anemia or blood disorders. The molecular structure of canine hemoglobin is well understood, with each subunit containing a globin chain and a heme molecule. The globin chains are responsible for the protein's stability and quaternary structure, while the heme groups are the sites of oxygen binding.
