Abstract
THE reduction of methaemoglobin is one of the few oxidation-reduction reactions known to occur in the mature red blood cell. Approximately 3% of the circulating haemoglobin of an adult man is oxidized each day to methaemoglobin1 and so a methaemoglobin reduction system is needed in the cell to maintain a low concentration of methaemoglobin (normally less than 1% of the total haemoglobin2).
