General description
Hemoglobin (Hb) is made of four globin chains each carrying a heme group. It is carried by red blood cells and transports oxygen from the lungs to the peripheral tissues to maintain the viability of cells. Quantitation of blood hemoglobin has been a key diagnostic parameter for various diseases such as anemia, polycythemia and dehydration.
Features and Benefits
- No hazardous chemicals (e.g. potassium cyanide in Drabkin′s Reagent) used.
- Compatible with high-throughput handling systems.
Suitability
The kit is suitable for the quantitative determination of hemoglobin (Hb) in whole blood.
Principle
Simple, direct and automation-ready procedures for measuring hemoglobin concentration are becoming popular in research and drug discovery. The Whole Blood Hemoglobin (Hb) Kit is based on an improved Triton/NaOH method, in which the hemoglobin is converted into a uniform colored end product. The intensity of color, measured at A570 nm, is directly proportional to the hemoglobin concentration in the sample. The optimized formulation substantially reduces interference by substances in the raw samples.
