Abstract

Oxy-and met-hemoglobin crystals were obtained from the blood of several kinds of fish, i.e., Thunnus orientalis (immature), Katsuwonus vagans, Cyprinus carpio, and Seriola quinque-radiata, etc., by SCHULZ's method, by DRABKIN's method or by the modification of the latter (Fig. 1), and studied spectrophotometrically. The spectra of various derivatives of these hemoglobins were then compared with those of horse hemoglobin prepared for reference (Fig. 2, Table 1), and it was found that there are neither so marked specific differences between fish and horse hemoglobins, nor between fish hemoglobin as seen increases of myoglobins of fish and higher vertebrates.
