A rapid method for the determination of glycosylated hemoglobins using high pressure liquid chromatography
Abstract
Hemoglobin (Hb) Alc is a minor component of Hb found in normal individuals but elevated two or threefold in patients with diabetes mellitus. Limited studies have suggested that the level of Hb Alc is proportional to the integrated concentration of glucose over time. Thus it could serve as an index of hyperglycemia. Its measurement may enable a more objective approach to assessing whether or not the control of hyperglycemia can be correlated with the severity of complications of diabetes. Large scale clinicab studies of Hb Alc have not been undertaken for lack of a rapid assay system. This article describes a method of high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) which enables the isolation of Hb Alc in 27 min using only 12 microgram of Hb (100 microliter of blood) and a second method for the isolation of total fast Hb components (also elevated in diabetes) in 11 min. Using the first method, a total of 36 assays were performed on the blood of a single normal volunteer over a one month period. the mean level of Hb Alc was 4.95 +/- 0.12% (SD) +/- 0.02% (SEM), while the coefficient of variation (C.V.) was 2.4%. The mean Hb Alc & b level was 1.65 +/- 0.06% +/- 0.01% (C.V. = 3.6%). Values for Hb Alc in 10 normal individuals were 5.06 (mean) +/- 0.32% (SD) +/- 0.01% (SEM). Hb Alc values in 15 patients with diabetes mellitus ranged from 6.8 to 20.0%. The second method was designed to assay Hb Ala, Hb Alb, and Hb Alc as a single peak and yielded results identical to the sum of these components as determined by the first method ( r = 0.98; p less than 0.001).

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
