High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) demonstrated advantages over conventional procedures employed in newborn and adult hemoglobinopathy screening programs for the identification of Hb variants has promoted the need to reassess our knowledge of hemoglobin reference ranges as it relates to HPLC quantitation. In this study, the HPLC hemoglobin reference ranges derived from 200 normal Afr...

OBJECTIVE The capillary electrophoresis (CE) is a new system that utilizes the principle of electrokinetic separation of molecules in eight electrolyte buffer-filled silica capillaries. In this study, we established the normal ranges of haemoglobin A2 (HbA2) and haemoglobin F (HbF) levels for normal individuals using this system and also the HbA2 level in beta thalassaemia and haemoglobin E (Hb...

OBJECTIVE Calibrated Automated Thrombogram(CAT) is a test to monitor the generation of thrombin. It can be described by four parameters: lag time, peak thrombin, endogenous thrombin potential (ETP) and time to peak (ttPeak). This study aims to determine the normal ranges of CAT parameters in Chinese, and evaluate whether thrombin generation is correlated with the concentration of heparin/low mo...

Submit Manuscript | http://medcraveonline.com have been performed; however, these studies were small and generated differing conclusions [6-8]. Normal ranges for CBC are quite broad with the highest value at the top of the normal range often several fold higher than the lowest value at the bottom of the normal range [9]. Because normal ranges are so broad, it is also possible that leukocyte cou...

Patients’ blood test results are different from one another hence Physicians need a reference measure that they can compare to in order to make the correct clinical decisions. These reference measures, obtained from a sample group in the healthy population, are the “normal ranges” for a specific measure. However normal ranges need to be established only for healthy individuals but also for spec...

Data on haemoglobin concentration, red cell count, packed cell volume, mean cell volume, mean cell haemoglobin and mean cell haemoglobin concentration for 'normal' children aged 1-4 years living on the Highveld (altitude 1400-1800 m) are presented in yearly age groups. The children were defined as normal on the basis of having growth attainment and iron, folate and vitamin B12 nutrition within ...

salinity is one of the abiotic stresses and exploitation of heterosis could increase the crop yield and extend the stress tolerance, especially in salinity stress. in this research, a set of full diallel design involving 7×7 crosses from cultivars including flat, bam, ghods, roshan, arg, kavir and pishtaz were conducted in a randomized complete block design with three replications under both no...
