TECHNICAL DESCR. |
DESCRIPTION
1. Date: 7-May-03-Revision: 01
|
|
2. Intended use:
The kit is intended for the quantitative determination of human hemoglobin A2 (HbA2), determination of hemoglobin F and hemoglobin variants. For hemoglobin variants the kit should be used in combination with CEofix™ HbA1c kit.
|
|
3. Principle of the test:
The hemoglobins are separated inside a capillary under the influence of an electrical field. Differences in charge to mass ratio give different migration times.
A UV detector is used and detects the hemoglobins at 415nm.
The kit consists of buffers and method. The buffers use the patented dynamic double coating technique.
The % HbA2 is defined as the percent of the HbA2 fraction in relation to the sum of all hemoglobin fractions.

|
|
7. Training:
The operator should be familiar with instrument (P/ACE 5000) operation and maintenance.
|
|
8. Reagent preparation and storage:
Reagents are ready to use. Store kit and buffers, in closed container, between 8°C and 30°C until expiration date.
Between operation buffer vials should be capped to avoid evaporation.
If the kit arrived damaged a replacement of the kit should be requested.
The kit contains no hazardous components.
|
|
9. Type of specimen:
Biological fluids should be collected in the manner normally used for any clinical laboratory test.
Whole blood is the preferred specimen.
|
|
11. Sample preparation:
Sample: 50 µL hemolyser + 10 µL of well-mixed whole blood in a microvial and mix.
|
|
12. Operations:
Every day operation:
- clean instrument and interface manifold
- put new rinse, conditioner, initiator buffer vials- put new waste vial - put clean and dry caps on buffer vials
- run cond1.met when system was down for several days
- prepare samples
- place sample in instrument
- run HbA2.met method
End of day:
- remove samples
- cap buffer vials
Placing new capillary
-When the capillary is broken or when the capillary is not operating properly replace the capillary: according the instrument manual. -run cond1.met for conditioning
|
|
13. Calibration:
No calibration is required for the kit.
Instrument should be maintained and calibrated according to Beckman Coulter specifications.
|
|
15. Calculation:
% HbA2 = corrected area of HbA2 fraction in relation with the sum of corrected areas of all hemoglobin fractions.
|

|
18. Interference:
- The presence of hemoglobin variants will limit the determination of HbA2.
-For determination of hemoglobin variants the kit should be used in combination with CEofix HbA1c kit.
|
|
19. Quality Control:
Pooled control or commercially available control should be included in each run.
