Glycohemoglobin (gly-Hb) reference ranges of non-diabetic adults with HbAA (n = 17), HbAS (n = 37), HbAC (n = 22), HbSC (n = 8), HbSS (n = 6) and HbCC (n = 3) were determined by 13 methods, based on affinity chromatography, HPLC, electrophoresis and immunoassay. Gly-Hb of subjects with HbAS and HbAC can be measured without major difficulties by most methods. Some give rise to absolute gly-Hb differences > or = 1% compared with subjects with HbAA. Measurement of HbA1c/total Hb cannot be recommended. Some HPLC and immunoassay methods cannot measure gly-Hb in subjects with HbSC, HbSS and HbCC, whereas others may suffer from interference. Most methods showed low gly-Hb, reflecting increased erythrocyte turnover. Use of special reference ranges requires previous knowledge of the condition (affinity chromatography and immunoassay) or separation of gly-Hb and its precursor Hb (HPLC and electrophoresis). Interpretation is, however, not recommended because of the numerous factors that determine erythrocyte turnover.

D006442 Glycated Hemoglobin Products of non-enzymatic reactions between GLUCOSE and HEMOGLOBIN (occurring as a minor fraction of the hemoglobin of ERYTHROCYTES.) It generally refers to glycated HEMOGLOBIN A. Hemoglobin A1c (Hb A1c) is hemoglobin A with GLYCATION on a terminal VALINE of the beta chain. Glycated hemoglobin A is used as an index of the average blood sugar level over a lifetime of erythrocytes.

D006444 Hemoglobin C A commonly occurring abnormal hemoglobin in which lysine replaces a glutamic acid residue at the sixth position of the beta chains. It results in reduced plasticity of erythrocytes.
D006451 Hemoglobin, Sickle An abnormal hemoglobin resulting from the substitution of valine for glutamic acid at position 6 of the beta chain of the globin moiety. The heterozygous state results in sickle cell trait, the homozygous in sickle cell anemia.
