Abstract excerpt
Background: HbE and α0-thalassemia are highly prevalent in Southeast Asia and co-inherited in asymptomatic carriers. α0-Thalassemia screening in HbE heterozygotes relies on HbE quantification. We evaluated the performance of a high-resolution HPLC system in quantifying HbE and HbA2 to distinguish HbE heterozygotes with and without α0-thalassemia. Methods: HbE heterozygotes (N=650) presenting EA patterns on...
