– Capillary electrophoresis is the next generation separation method that provides clear-cut and precise separation of the HbA1c fraction with no altered results in the presence of the most frequent interferences (labile A1c, carbamylated Hb, HbF, heterozygous S, C, D and E).

– Capillary electrophoresis is the next generation separation method that provides clear-cut and precise separation of the HbA1c fraction with no altered results in the presence of the most frequent interferences (labile A1c, carbamylated Hb, HbF, heterozygous S, C, D and E). The high resolution power of the method allows the incidental detection of homozygous hemoglobin variants (sicke cell disease,…) preventing HbA1c reporting in the absence of HbA.
– The HbA1c measurement is done by using the exact same calculation formula as the one used by the IFCC reference method for the worldwide assay standardization: HbA1c/(HbA1c+HbA0), thus ensuring reliable results in all circumstances.
