Carbaminohemoglobin

Carbaminohemoglobin (carbaminohaemoglobin BrE) (CO₂Hb, also known as carbhemoglobin and carbohemoglobin) is a compound of hemoglobin and carbon dioxide, and is one of the forms in which carbon dioxide exists in the blood.^[1] Twenty-three percent of carbon dioxide is carried in blood this way (70% is converted into bicarbonate by carbonic anhydrase and then carried in plasma, 7% carried as free CO₂, dissolved in plasma).^[2]
