Hemin
Hemin (trade name Panhematin) is an iron-containing porphyrin. More specifically, it is protoporphyrin IX containing a ferric iron ion (heme B) with a chloride ligand.
Contents
It is used in the management of porphyria attacks, particularly in acute intermittent porphyria.
It is sometimes distinguished from hematin which has a hydroxide ligand in place of the chloride. However, the terms are sometimes equated.
Hematin is considered the "X factor" required for the growth of Haemophilus influenzae.
