Table 1.

Effects of caffeic acid on the oxygen affinity of RBCs from a sickle cell patient. Suspensions of SS cell (20% hematocrit) were incubated with 5 mm CA at 0 °C for 48 h prior to determination of the ODC using the Hemox Analyzer. Control is a suspension of SS cells (20% hematocrit).

Caffeic acid (5 mm) SS RBCs P50 (mmHg) Hill coefficient (n)
SS RBCs (Control) (0) 46.27 ± 0.27 2.94 ± 0.06
SS RBCs + 5 Mm CA 39.56 ± 1.04 2.26 ± 0.11
