Hemoglobin (Hb)

Target
Hb
Molecular classification
Metalloprotein, Chromoprotein, Globulin
01

Overview

Hemoglobin is an iron-containing protein in red blood cells that transports oxygen from the lungs to the tissues and facilitates carbon dioxide transport back to the lungs. It also helps buffer blood pH. Abnormal levels or variants can indicate hematological disorders.
