Hydroxocobalamin Treatment for Carbon Monoxide Exposures: Characterizing Hemoglobin Changes and Testing for Neurological Sequelae
Prior work in our lab has indicated that reduced Hydroxocobalamin (B12r) can be added to human blood and is able to convert carbon monoxide (CO) into carbon dioxide. This has great potential as a direct antidote to mitigate the toxic effects of CO poisoning which is a public health risk. In the firs...
