β¦ Synopsis
We investigated the performances of HbA1c determination by a latex enhanced turbidimetric immunoassay using the specific monoclonal antibodies (Unimate, Roche) against the beta-N-terminal fragments. The coefficients of variation ranges from 1.7 to 3.8% within assay (n = 30) and from 3.9 to 4.9% between assay (n = 20). The assay was linear from 2.5 to 14.9% of HbA1c. No interferences was found from fetal, carbamylated, or variant (S) hemoglobins and from labile Schiff adduct with glucose. The following relationship was derived from fresh sample comparison between HPLC (Diamat-BioRad) (x) and immunoassay (y) method: y = 0.971 x + 0.87%, r=0.98, n = 115. The immunoassay provides a highly precise and specific method for HbA1c.

Glycated hemoglobin, considered to be the best index for the treatment of diabetes mellitus, was measured by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI/MS) according to the method proposed by Morris et al. at the 44th ASMS Conference on Mass Spectrometry and Allied Topics, 1996.
