sickle cell disease is a genetic haemoglobinopathy with consequent haemolysis and anaemia. it is of interest to study its effect on red cell indices beside haemoglobin concentration.the objective of the study is to determine the values of red cell indices in preschool-age children with sickle cell anaemia.we conducted a cross-sectional study including 97 children with sickle cell anaemia aged s...

background: the aim of the present study was application of haemoglobin absorption spectroscopy as a distinguishing tool for identification of two haemoglobin types-hba and hbs. material and methods: millimolar absorptivities of normal adult haemoglobin (hba) and sickle cell haemoglobin (hbs) were monitored at ph values of 7.2 and 5.0, within the ultra violet and visible spectral range (250-650...

Background: The aim of the present study was application of haemoglobin absorption spectroscopy as a distinguishing tool for identification of two haemoglobin types-HbA and HbS. Material and Methods: Millimolar absorptivities of normal adult haemoglobin (HbA) and sickle cell haemoglobin (HbS) were monitored at pH values of 7.2 and 5.0, within the ultra violet and visible spectral range (250-...
