Oxyhemoglobin Dissociation Curve Flashcards
1
Q
Bohr Effect
A
“Right Shift”
Decreased pH
Increased 2-3 DPG
Increased Temperature
More oxygen is off-loaded from hemoglobin, increasing serum oxygen levels.
2
Q
Haldane Effect
A
“Left Shift”
Increased pH
Decreased 2-3 DPG
Decreased Temperature
Oxygen displaces Co2 from hgb, decreasing serum oxygen levels.
3
Q
2-3 DPG
A
Located on Hgb. Used to release oxygen from hgb when needed.
