The oxyhaemoglobin dissociation curve
The oxygen–hemoglobin dissociation curve plots the percent hemoglobin saturation (y-axis) against the partial pressure of oxygen in the blood (PO2). The blue curve is standard curve, while the red and green curves are right and leftward shifts respectively.
This is a graph of the oxyhaemoglobin dissociation curve. The oxygen–hemoglobin dissociation curve plots the percent hemoglobin saturation (y-axis) against the partial pressure of oxygen in the blood (x-axis). The graph shows three colored curves: the blue curve is the standard curve, while the red and green curves are right and leftward shifts respectively.
