Oxygen myoglobin

Bubble air through solution with a small pipet for 1 min to oxygenate myoglobin. 

The oxygen-myoglobin association is assumed to be a first-order reaction... 

The steady state, one-dimensional mass balance equations for oxygenated myoglobin complex (2) and free oxygen (1) are... 

Fig. 7. Experimental Mossbauer spectra of frozen solution of MbCO. (a) T = 4.2 °K Ho = 0. (b) T = 4.2°K, Ho = 47 kOe, Ho L y. The additional resonances at —0.9 mm/sec and +1.33 mm/sec are due to oxygenated myoglobin (MbCC>2) which remained in the sample through the preparation of MbCO. The broad shoulders in (b) are probably due to the impurity effect of MbOg. [Taken from Ref. (50)]...

Theorell [4], and hemocyanin. The rate of the oxygen-myoglobin reaction of 2 X lOVrosec was accurately determined, a reaction as fast as any which has been studied by flow-mixing methods. This line of work came to an end with Millikan s untimely death in a climbing accident, and his apparatus has never been replicated, although it was preserved for many years in Roughton s laboratory.
