The Haldane effect at increasing O2 levels means hemoglobin has decreased affinity for CO2 as O2 levels increase, such as in lung capillaries, causing CO2 release.
El efecto Haldane con niveles crecientes de O2 implica que la hemoglobina tiene una menor afinidad por el CO2 cuando los niveles de O2 aumentan, como en los capilares pulmonares, lo que provoca la liberación de CO2.

| Back | As levels of O2 increase (as in the lungs capillaries) decrease in affinity of hemoblobin for CO2 (causes a release of CO2) |
