Abstract:
Benzylpenicillin is incubated with whole human blood. The degree of reactivity of 14C-benzylpenicillin to the components of this blood is determined via a Beckman LS-100C Liquid Scintillation Counter.The oxygen carrying capacities of penicillin treated adult normal and sickled hemoglobin are measured spectrophotometrically and compared to untreated adult normal and sickled hemoglobin.Ball State UniversityMuncie, IN 47306
