چکیده
The accuracy of many convenient methods for determining the proportion of hemoglobin A1 to total hemoglobin by ion-exchange chromatography is in question because those methods have not been evaluated against a reference method. In addition, several if not all of these tests are influenced by laboratory temperature. We modified the chromatographic conditions usually used, to arrive at a method that gives results that agree well with those by the Trivelli method (N. Engi. J. Med. 284,353, 1971)and is less influenced by ambient temperature than are results obtained with the commercially available Helena and Isolab kits. We accomplished this by lowering the pH of the fast-hemoglobin eluting buffer, with a corresponding adjustment in the ionic strength. We also use a larger elution volume, which assures more nearly complete elution of the hemoglobin A, fraction. The final method (y) agreed well with the Trivelli method (x), the regression equation being y = 0.98x + 0.63, r2 = 0.887. Average results from the Helena and isolab methods were lower than with the reference method by 1.58 and 3.03% hemoglobin A,, respectively.

متن کاملDevelopment of a new method based on chiral ligand-exchange chromatography for the enantioseparation of propranolol
A new chromatographic procedure was proposed for the separation of propranolol (PRN) enantiomers based upon enantioselective chiral ligand-exchange chromatography. The separation was carried out on a short C8 column leading to considerably short separation time. L-alanine and Cu2+ were applied as chiral selector and central bivalent complexing ion, respectively. It was found that the kind of co...
