Abstract
The stabilizing effect of glucose and sucrose upon haemoglobin molecules against oxidation during lyophilization was perturbated by the presence of fluid or greasy polyethylene glycols (m.w. 300-600 daltons) but not of the rigid ones (m.w. 1 500-6 000 daltons). The results corroborate the idea of a simple mechanical nature of haemoglobin stabilization under study.
