Online published on 20 March, 2013. Abstract Identification of disorder like thalassemia syndromes is immensely important epidemiologically and aid in prevention of more serious hemoglobin disorders. High performance liquid Chromatography (HPLC) forms an important tools and accurate and speedy diagnosis of various hemoglobin disorders. The study was performed on BIO RAD Variant using beta thalassemia short program. The blood samples are taken from various age groups. Abnormal hemoglobin fraction on HPLC was seen in 69 cases of the 428 cases displayed. Detection of this abnormal hemoglobin particularly keeping in mind in high prevalence of Hb A2 will help in prevention of more serious hemoglobinopathies including beta thalassemia major. HPLC form a rapid and accurate tool in early detection and management of various hemoglobin disorders Top Keywords HPLC, hemoglobin variant, thalassemia. Top |
