Transferrins are glycoproteins found in vertebrates which bind and consequently mediate the transport of iron through blood plasma. They are produced in the liver and contain binding sites for two Fe3
Transferrin bound to its receptor.

In chemistry, iron or ferric refers to the element iron in its +3 oxidation state. Ferric chloride is an alternative name for iron chloride. The adjective ferrous is used instead for iron salts, conta

…which bind and consequently mediate the transport of iron (Fe) through blood plasma. They are produced in the liver and contain binding sites for two Fe3+ ions. Human transferrin is encoded by the TF gene and produced as a 76 kDa glycoprotein. Transferrin glycoproteins bind iron tightly, but reversibly…
Potassium ferrioxalate contains the iron(III) complex [Fe(C2O4)3]3−.
Ferric oxide, commonly called rust, is a very complicated material that contains iron(III).
