| ferriheme | Synonym: haematin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ferriheme chloride | <physiology> A substance, in the form of reddish brown, microscopic, prismatic crystals, formed from dried blood by the action of strong acetic acid and common salt; called also Teichmann's crystals. Chemically, it is a hydrochloride of haematin. The obtaining of these small crystals, from old blood clots or suspected blood stains, constitutes one of the best evidences of the presence of blood. Origin: Gr. Blood. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| ferrihemoglobin | Haemoglobin in a form incapable of carrying oxygen. (12 Dec 1998) |
| ferriporphyrin | The compound formed between a ferric ion and a porphyrin; e.g., ferriprotoporphyrin (hemin). (05 Mar 2000) |
| ferriporphyrin chloride | <physiology> A substance, in the form of reddish brown, microscopic, prismatic crystals, formed from dried blood by the action of strong acetic acid and common salt; called also Teichmann's crystals.

| ferriprive | Suffering from or characterised by iron deficiency. (18 Nov 1997) |

| ferritin | <protein> An iron storage protein of mammals, found in liver, spleen and bone marrow. Morphologically a shell of apoferritin protein with a core of ferrous hydroxide or phosphate. It is much used as an electron dense label in electron microscopy. (18 Nov 1997) |
| ferritin reductase | <enzyme> Requires fmn Registry number: EC 1.6.99.- Synonym: ferriductase (26 Jun 1999) |
