Abstract
Cooperative effects in the binding of oxygen to hemoglobin have been known and studied for some time. The degree of cooperativity is reflected in the S or sigmoid saturation curve (i.e. percentage of oxygenated hemoglobin as a function of the partial pressure of oxygen) showing that the binding of a few oxygen molecules favours the binding of more and that binding occurs best at high oxygen concentrations.
