Overview

In methemoglobin, iron in the hemoglobin molecule is in the ferric (Fe3+) state instead of the normal ferrous (Fe2+) state. This change in iron oxidation state reduces the blood's oxygen-carrying capacity. Methemoglobinemia is a condition where an excessive amount of methemoglobin is present in the blood, leading to reduced oxygen delivery to body tissues.
