Xiangming Gu works on developing and characterizing blood substitutes based on chemically modified (polymerized) hemoglobin, aiming to create products that can carry oxygen like red blood cells. This includes engineering nanoparticle-based and membrane-based carriers, studying how these substitutes affect blood vessels and heart muscle cells, and scaling up manufacturing methods for producing and purifying these materials. The work bridges biochemistry, bioengineering, and physiology to address the need for alternatives to donated blood.
