Abstract: | Using IEF on slabs of acrylamide gel was adapted for screening of abnormal Hemoglobins which are at the same level by electrophoresis on cellulose acetate strips. This method is fast, inexpensive and allowed the simultaneous analysis of 70 samples of whole blood. The characterization technique of IEF allowed us to distinguish some rare variants like Hb O Arab, HbD and T gamma in B 0-thalassemia. |
