The Tosoh G7 Automated HPLC Analyzer facilitates both hemoglobin A1c and Beta-thalassemia testing to provide laboratories with the full patient profile.  The Beta-thalassemia program quantifies hemoglobins F and A2, which are used in screening for Beta-thalassemia. In addition, the Beta-thalassemia testing program is used for presumptive identification of hemoglobins S, C and D and for screening for other hemoglobinopathies.

HPLC is the preferred methodology for hemoglobinopathy screening.  Since the G7 can be used for both hemoglobin A1c and Beta-thalassemia testing, it is essentially 2 instruments in 1.  

NGSP certified, the G7 provides time and labor-savings with primary tube sampling, automated cap piercing and positive sample identification. Most importantly, with less than 2% CV’s, the G7 offers an extremely high level of both precision and accuracy.

HPLC Testing: Beta thalassemia Mode on G7 HPLC Analyzer

Switching between the hemoglobin A1c and Beta-thalassemia testing programs is very easy, simple and fast. Just remove the hemoglobin A1c reagents, replace them with the Beta-thalassemia reagents, and the G7 HPLC Analyzer will do the rest.  Once the buffers and column have been changed, the system is automatically primed and is ready to perform analysis within minutes.

Beta Thalassemia on G7 HPLC Analyzer

(April 28, 2009) … HPLC Testing Video focusses on switching to beta thalassemia testing mode on G7 HPLC Analyzer.  The Tosoh G7 Automated HPLC Analyzer has both hemoglobin A1c and beta thalassemia programs to provide full patient profile. The beta-thalassemia program quantifies hemoglobins F and A2, which are used in screening for beta-thalassemia. In addition, the beta-thalassemia program is used for presumptive identification of hemoglobins S, C and D and for screening for other hemoglobinopathies.
