Investigating alpha-globin structural variants: a retrospective review of 135,000 Brazilian individuals

Revista Brasileira de Hematologia e Hemoterapia, 2015
Background: Brazil has a multiethnic population with a high diversity of hemoglobinopathies. While screenings for beta-globin mutations are far more common, alterations affecting alpha-globin genes are usually more silent and less well known.

Methemoglobin and Sulfhemoglobin Levels in Students of Walailak University

Walailak Journal of Science and Technology, 2011
Methemoglobin (MHb) and Sulfhemoglobin (SHb) are abnormal oxygen-carrying protein hemoglobins (Hbs) in blood circulation which can be used to represent the degree of pollution in the surrounding environment including air, food and drinks.

Quantitation of Some Abnormal Hemoglobins

Clinical Chemistry, 1964
Abstract A method is presented for identification and quantitation of abnormal hemoglobins. Electrophoretic fractionation with cellulose acetate is followed by elution of each fraction into Drabkin's solution. In the presence of Drabkin's solution hemoglobin is converted to cyanmethemoglobin and measured in any standard photometer at 540
