Intended Use The Hb-Gold instrument and associated reagent kit is intended for the in vitro measurement of HbA1c, HbA2/HbF and the detection of haemoglobin variants in blood samples. NOTE : In the USA, this instrument is available for research only. Scientific principle The Hb-Gold uses cation exchange chromatography in conjunction with gradient elution to separate human haemoglobin subtypes and variants from haemolysed whole blood. The separated haemoglobin fractions are monitored by means of absorption and the chromatogram obtained is recorded and stored by the internal computer. A software program performs the analysis of the chromatogram and generates a results report to the printer. The Hb-Gold is able to run three different assays: |
| HbA1c assay 5.5 minutes | |
| HbA2/HbF assay 6 minutes | |
| Hb Variants assay 13 minutes |
