Know our products:Pork Hemoglobin 🐷

Pork (porcine) hemoglobin is a protein found in the blood of pigs. Like hemoglobin in humans and other mammals, it is responsible for transporting oxygen from the lungs to the body’s tissues and also helps transport carbon dioxide from the tissues back to the lungs to be exhaled.

Pork hemoglobin is often used in biomedical research and in the food industry. In the food industry, it is used in products such as sausages and other processed meats, as well as in laboratory tests.

In addition to its use in the food industry and in biomedical research, pig hemoglobin is also explored in the production of blood substitutes for human transfusions, especially in emergency situations or shortages of human blood.

Their structure and function are studied to better understand mammalian physiology and to develop more effective medical treatments. The use of pig hemoglobin in different contexts highlights its importance both in scientific research and in practical application in different areas.
