Using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), the stationary
phase used is a weakly acidiccation exchanger. Glycosylation of
hemoglobin will result in the loss of cations on the surface of
hemoglobin without being charged, and non glycosylated hemoglobin
has a positive charge. According to the different charged
properties of hemoglobin, eluents with different pH values and
ionic strengths are used sequentially, and several hemoglobin
components including HbA1c are separated by high performance liquid
chromatography. Each component is detected by a single wavelength
colorimeter, and the detected data is processed by a computer to
calculate the percentage content of HbA1c in the total hemoglobin.
Basic Parameters
Test modes: Whole blood and pre-dilute modes
Blood sampling volume: The sampling volume of whole blood samples
shall not be less than 1.5ml. The EDTA K2 is the recommended
anticoagulant.
Test specimen volume: 5ul in whole blood mode; 150ul in pre
dilution mode.
Dilution ratio (pre dilution mode): Whole blood: Hemolysis = 1:300
(5ul W hole blood + 1500ul Hemolysis)
Analysis wavelength: 420nm.
Performance Parameters
Reporting unit: Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is reported in NGSP
(%) and IFCC units (mmol/mol).
Accuracy: The accuracy is tested with reference materials as
samples, and the relative deviation of the test results should be
within ± 5%.
Repeatability: For samples with a test concentration of 4%-6%, the
sample coefficient of variation (CV) of the test results is not
greater than 2.0%.
Linear range: Within the range of 3%-18% of glycosylated
hemoglobin, the linear correlation coefficient R value of the test
results should not be less than 0.9900.
Stability Within 8 hours after the analyzer is turned on and
stabilized, the same normal sample is tested,
and the relative deviation of the test results is not more than
±3.0%.
Carrying pollution: The carrying pollution rate of the analyzer
should not be greater than 2.0%.
Basic function: Provides Chinese report and abnormal alarm.
The temperature accuracy and fluctuation of the chromatography
column module: the temperature is within ±1°C of the set value, and
the fluctuation is not more than 0.8°C.
Product Composition
The analyzer consists of an auto sample injection module, a liquid
chromatography separation module, a colorimetric detection and
control module, a barcode scanning module, and a display printing
module.

Reagents and Consumables
The analyzer is recommended to be used in conjunction with the
Glycosylated Hemoglobin Test Reagent Kit (high performance liquid
chromatography (HPLC method)) produced by our company, which
includes the following components:
Eluent A/Eluent B/Eluent C(Variant Mode) | Adjusts the pH of the solution for the elution of glycosylated
hemoglobin and non glycated hemoglobin. |
Hemolysis Reagent | Used to dissolve red blood cells and release hemoglobin. |
Chromatography Column | Used for separation and elution of glycosylated hemoglobin and non
glycated. |
Hemoglobin Filter | Used to initially filter the sample after hemolysis. |
Paper Rolls | Prints a report of the test results. |
