Ketosis is a nutritional process characterised by serum concentrations of ketone bodies over 0.5 mM, with low and stable levels of insulin and blood glucose. It is almost always generalized with hyperketonemia, that is, an elevated level of ketone bodies in the blood throughout the body.
Hemoglobin (American) or haemoglobin (British) (/ËhiËmÉËÉ¡loÊbÉªn, ËhÉ-, -moÊ-/[1][2][3]); abbreviated Hb or Hgb, is the iron-containing oxygen-transport metalloprotein in the red blood cells of all vertebrates[4] (with the exception of the fish family Channichthyidae[5]) as well as the tissues of some invertebrates.
1 Transport Proteins-are carrier proteins which move molecules from one place to another around the body. 2  Examples include hemoglobin and cytochromes. 3  Hemoglobin transports oxygen through the blood via red blood cells. 4  Cytochromes operate in the electron transport chain as electron carrier proteins.
