Abstract:HbA1c is a widely utilized biomarker for the management of diabetes mellitus. The presence of variant hemoglobins might interfere with HbA1c measurement using different methods. We herein describe Hb Agenogi (β90Glu → Lys) with type 2 diabetes mellitus whose HbA1c measured by immunoassay (IA) showed falsely high levels while HbA1c measured by highperformance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in the standard mode (SM) showed falsely low levels. To clarify the cause of the falsely high-IA-HbA1c levels, HbA1c was meas… Show more
