Abstract

See full text

A process for obtaining hepatitis-safe, sterile, pyrogen- and stroma-free hemoglobin solutions of low potassium content comprising stirring an erythrocyte concentrate with about 1 to 6-times its volume of an about 5 to 15% aqueous solution of a sugar, sugar alcohol or high-molecular-weight colloid, adjusting the pH of the resulting suspension to about 5 to 6.5 with an acid which is physiologically tolerable as salt, allowing the erythrocytes to settle, removing the supernatant from the sediments, adjusting the pH of the sediment to about 7 to 8, homogenizing the sediment, adjusting its hematocrit to about 55 to 60%, treating the mass with a dilute beta-propiolactone solution, hemolyzing the residual solids and forming a suspension thereof, contacting the suspension with a cation exchanger in H.sup.+ form until the pH has decreased to about 5 to 5.5 thereby to precipitate the stroma, separating from the liquid the cation exchanger and precipitated stroma, and adjusting the pH to about 7.2 to 7.6.
