Diagnosing hemoglobinopathies and thalassemia involves a combination of clinical evaluation, complete blood count, and hemoglobin electrophoresis. Capillary electrophoresis (CE) is increasingly recognized as a crucial confirmatory diagnostic tool due to its high resolution and sensitivity. CE separates different hemoglobin fractions based on their charge and size, allowing for precise identification of abnormal hemoglobins and quantification of variants. This technique enhances the differentiation between various types of thalassemia and hemoglobinopathies, facilitating accurate diagnosis, guiding treatment decisions, and improving patient management. Its rapid turnaround time and automation also contribute to more efficient laboratory workflows. https://lnkd.in/dH6qprPc Join this Webinar holding online on 13th November to learn more. 🤗
