Polymerization of sickle cell hemoglobin at arterial oxygen saturation impairs erythrocyte deformability.

We have examined the filterability of sickle erythrocytes, using an initial-flow-rate method, to determine whether sufficient hemoglobin S polymer forms at arterial oxygen saturation to adversely affect erythrocyte deformability. The amount of intracellular polymer was calculated as a function of ox...
