Abstract
A NUMBER of well-defined physico-chemical differences exist between human adult and fœtal hæmoglobins. These include their electrophoretic and chromatographic behaviour under defined conditions, a large difference in alkali denaturation rates, and the changed position and contour of the tryptophan fine-structure band.
