Hb Variant (Hemoglobin Variant) Analysis

Identifies abnormal hemoglobin variants associated with blood disorders

About This Test

This diagnostic test identifies abnormal hemoglobin variants and helps diagnose hemoglobinopathies, particularly thalassemia and sickle cell disorders. The test evaluates inherited blood disorders caused by abnormal forms of hemoglobin where mutations affect globin chains (alpha, beta, gamma, delta). It identifies structural changes that impact hemoglobin production, stability, and oxygen-carrying capacity.

Used For
