Colorimetric Method
Intended use
For the quantitative in vitro determination of blood haemoglobin according to the recommendation of the International Committee for Standardisation in Haematology (ICSH). This product is suitable for Manual use.
Clinical Significance
Haemoglobin levels can be used to determine the severity of anaemia or polycythaemia. Higher than normal levels of haemoglobin may indicate dehydration or lung disease; low levels of haemoglobin are associated with iron deficiency, vitamin and mineral deficiencies, renal disease, liver cirrhosis or cancer affecting the bone marrow.
Principle
Haemoglobin is first oxidized by potassium ferricyanide into methaemoglobin which is converted into cyanmethaemoglobin by potassium cyanide. The absorbance of the cyanmethaemoglobin is monitored at 540 nm.
