Evaluation of a dual hemoglobin A(2)/A(1c) quantitation kit on the bio-rad variant II automated hemoglobin analyzer.
Abstract
CONTEXT: Quantitation of hemoglobin (Hb) A(1c) and investigation of hemoglobinopathy on the Bio-Rad Variant analyzers require a switch between 2 separate kits that is time consuming and causes errors.
OBJECTIVE: Evaluation of a new Variant II HbA(2)/HbA(1c) Dual kit capable of both Hb A(1c) quantitation and hemoglobinopathy investigation on a single kit.
