The carbamino effect occurs when CO2 binds to hemoglobin, forming carbaminohemoglobin, which reduces hemoglobin's affinity for O2 and causes oxygen unloading.
El efecto carbamino ocurre cuando el CO2 se une a la hemoglobina, formando carbaminohemoglobina, lo que reduce la afinidad de la hemoglobina por el O2 y provoca la descarga de oxígeno.
| Front | Describe the carbamino effect |
|---|---|
| Back | 1. Accumulates combines w/ hbg to form carbaminohemoglobin 2. Reduced affinity for O2 3. Oxygen is unloaded |
