ADULT HEMOGLOBIN ELECTROPHORESIS
What does ADULT HEMOGLOBIN ELECTROPHORESIS measure?
Adult hemoglobin electrophoresis measures the different types of hemoglobin in the blood and identifies unusual hemoglobin patterns or variants. It may be used to help evaluate suspected inherited hemoglobin disorders, investigate unexplained anemia, or assess abnormal red blood cell findings. The test can distinguish common adult hemoglobin fractions and may detect variants such as those associated with sickle cell disorders or thalassemia.
