G6PD diaxBox: Digital image-based quantification of G6PD deficiency
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is the most common enzymopathy in humans. More than 400 million people worldwide are affected by this genetic condition. Testing for G6PD deficiency before drug administration is essential for patient safety. Rapidly ascertaining the G6PD status of a person is desirable for proper treatment.

Incidence and mutation analysis of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency in eastern indonesian populations [PDF]
We conducted a field survey of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenese (G6PD) deficiency in the eastern Indonesian islands, and analyzed G6PD variants molecularly. The incidence of G6PD deficiency in 5 ethnic groups (Manggarai, Bajawa, Nage-Keo, Larantuka, and

Liver Failure in Neonates With G6PD Deficiency
ABSTRACT Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is a commonly inherited enzyme defect that can present with hemolysis, hyperbilirubinemia, and jaundice and may cause kidney and liver dysfunction. G6PD deficiency may serve as a cofactor for chronic liver disease; however, an association with liver failure is not well described. We
