Stained blood smears show target cells, spherocytes, and rarely sickle cells or oat-shaped cells. Sickling is identified in a sickling preparation, and hemoglobin electrophoresis establishes the diagnosis.

There are multiple methods to evaluate hemoglobinopathies such as thalassemia (decreased production of hemoglobin) and sickle cell disease (SCD; hemoglobin variants). A hemoglobinopathy evaluation is a group of tests that determines the presence and relative amounts of abnormal forms of hemoglobin to screen for and diagnose a hemoglobin disorder.

4 Νοε 2022 · Hemoglobin electrophoresis is a blood test commonly used to diagnose and characterize disorders of hemoglobin, called hemoglobinopathies. Hemoglobin is a complex protein, contained within the red blood cells, whose job is to carry and deliver oxygen throughout the body.
The hemoglobin solubility test is positive because of the presence of Hb S. Electrophoretically, Hb C and Hb S migrate in almost equal amounts (45%) on alkaline electrophoresis, and Hb F is normal.
A hemoglobin electrophoresis test gives healthcare providers a snapshot of hemoglobin types. Hemoglobin type levels are a way of evaluating hemoglobin, a protein in your red blood cells. An abnormal change in your hemoglobin type levels may be a sign you have a medical condition.
Hemoglobin C, S-C, and E diseases are inherited conditions characterized by gene mutations that affect the hemoglobin (the protein that carries oxygen) in red blood cells. These red blood cells are destroyed more quickly than others, resulting in chronic anemia.
