	Bohr Effect
		The Bohr Effect is an adaptation in animals to release oxygen in the oxygen starved tissues in capillaries where respiratory carbon dioxide lowers blood pH.
		The Bohr Effect aids in this function by releasing oxygen to the tissues when the concentration of hydrogen ions becomes large.
		Therefore, the Bohr Effect is necessary for the body to function.

	Bohr effect -- Facts, Info, and Encyclopedia article (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		It was first described by the Danish physiologist (additional info and facts about Christian Bohr) Christian Bohr in 1904.
		The dissociation curve shifts to the right when carbon dioxide concentration is increased, simply meaning that higher oxygen partial pressure is required for the same degree of saturation of hemoglobin.
		In the Hiroshima variant (A blood disease characterized by the presence of abnormal hemoglobins in the blood) haemoglobinopathy the Bohr effect is diminished so the haemoglobin has a higher affinity for oxygen and tissue may suffer minor oxygen starvation during high work.
