Aims/hypothesis Glycated albumin is a measure of the mean plasma glucose concentration
over approximately 2–3 weeks. We determined reference values for glycated albumin, and …

Diabetes can be diagnosed and monitored by measurement of the cutoff ratio between
glycated hemoglobins (HbA1c) and total hemoglobin (Hb), which does not require a fasting …

Background: Hemoglobin (Hb) A1c is a tool widely used to monitor long-term glycemic
control in diabetic patients. The objective of our study is to compare the HbA1c values …

We describe a gold nanoparticle-based sandwich immunoassay for the dual detection and
measurement of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and total hemoglobin in the whole blood (without …

Background Glycated albumin (GA) is a measure of the mean plasma glucose concentration
over approximately 2–3 weeks. This study was done to test the hypothesis that GA can serve …

Objective Glycated albumin (GA) values reflect an average plasma glucose level over
approximately 2–4 weeks, and the assay is stable and can be run on serum or plasma. The …

OBJECTIVES: The influences of Hb variants on HbA1c values can cause mismanagement of
diabetes; therefore, the effects of Hb E, H, and G-Taichung variants were evaluated …
