 PROFILE
Finicky vampires may find themselves saying, "Ick! What is this stuff?!" if the FDA approves Northfield Laboratories' blood substitute. Developed as a ready and safe alternative to transfusion in situations of extreme blood loss, PolyHeme carries oxygen and restores blood volume without the risk of transmitting such diseases as AIDS or hepatitis and without the need for blood typing. In addition, PolyHeme has a longer shelf life than real blood. The firm makes PolyHeme from modified hemoglobin derived from human blood. PolyHeme is in advanced clinical trials. Northfield has licensing agreements with Pharmacia & Upjohn (now part of Pharmacia Corporation) and the Israeli firm Hemocare to market PolyHeme outside the US.
