What color is your blood?!


Question: Before it comes into contact with the oxygen in the environment.


Answers: Before it comes into contact with the oxygen in the environment.

Unoxygenated blood appears as a dark royal red with a bluish tint.

The red in blood comes from the hemoglobin, in which iron atoms are suspended in a web of proteins in order to selectively add or subtract oxygen. Have you ever noticed rusting iron? The dark red of rusted iron is the same basic tint as the oxygen carrying blood.

So called 'unoxygenated' blood is still [90 to 98 percent] saturated with oxygen, thus it is still a shade of red, albeit somewhat bluish
