Actions and Spectrum
Hemoglobin crosfumaril is a type of hemoglobin that has been modified by a chemical process to make the alpha-subunits of the protein cross-linked with each other.
This is done to improve the stability and oxygen-carrying capacity of the hemoglobin, which can be used as a blood substitute in certain situations.
