Abstract

Crosslinked hemoglobin preparations of extended shelf life and high oxygen transport capacity can be made by reducing a hemoglobin solution with an oxygen consuming reducing agent down to an oxygen partial pressure of 0 mbar, then adding an effector, crosslinking with a dialdehyde, reducing with a carbonyl-group-specific reducing agent, circulating through an ultrafilter, and stabilizing the product by adding a reducing agent thereto.
