[Histonet] Reaction between Haemoglobin and acetic acid

[Tony Henwood]

Hi all,

I have been asked what is the altered haemoglobin called that results
from the treatment of tissues with acetic acid.
All I could think of was that carbon monoxide reacts with haemoglobin to
form carboxyhemoglobin.

Any ideas?
