    Notes: The oxygen-carrying capacity of artificial red cells (ARC), which were prepared by encapsulating hemoglobin (Hb) into polymerized lipid vesicles, has been investigated in detail. It was found that the effects of inositol hexaphosphate (IHP) on the oxygen affinity of stromafree Hb and ARC are quite different. By co-encapsulating IHP at a IHP:Hb molar ratio of 1.0, the oxygen affinity of the encapsulated Hb in ARC was decreased to such an extent that P50 was about 60-65 mmHg, and only about 70-80% of the encapsulated Hb could be oxygenated at an oxygen partial pressure (Po2) of about 100 mmHg. As pyridoxal 5-phosphate (PLP) and chloride ions were coencapsulated instead of IHP, P50 and the Hill coefficient of the obtained ARC were adjusted to 25-30 mmHg and 2.5-2.8 respectively. The oxygen-transporting efficiency of PLP-modulated ARC was similar to or better than that of red blood cells.

    Notes: The carbonyl hemoglobin (CO-Hb), which was used to prevent denaturation (metHb) during the preparation of samples, was encapsulated into lipid vesicles constituted from unsaturated phospholipid, cholesterol and unsaturated fatty acid. Unsaturated components were polymerized by γ-irradiation to enhance the stability of bilayer membrane. An aqueous dispersion of resulting Hb vesicles was freeze-dried in the presence of saccharides (50-200 mM) to obtain a dehydrated powder of Hb vesicles. Change in the vesicle size, the leakage of encapsulated Hb and the oxidation of Hb to metHb were not observed. Therefore, the long-term storage of Hb vesicles can be realized as a dry powder.
