Artificial blood substitutes are being developed to carry oxygen like real blood but without the need for donors. These lab-made solutions could help in emergencies, battlefield medicine, or areas with blood shortages. Scientists are creating hemoglobin-based oxygen carriers and stem cell-derived red blood cells, offering safer, longer-lasting alternatives with lower risk of infections and immune reactions.
