A number of fascinating papers were presented on various aspects of hemoglobin, its structure, its interaction with ligands such as oxygen, and its properties under varying conditions. Red cell metabolism was considered, in depth, from many viewpoints, including defects in uremia, interactions with serum phosphorous, male-female differences, the role of catalase, genetic selection for quantitative variation, and mechanisms of glycolytic response to altitude stress and to anemia. As with the first conference, a session was devoted to the continuing assessment of the importance of decline in red cell oxygen transport functional capacity during blood bank storage. A session was also devoted to consideration of carbonic anhydrase and carbon dioxide transport, and the interaction of this area with oxygen transport. A high point of the conference was the session on sickle cell structure and function.
