Hb-Vario For HbA1c Testing

HbA1c is recognized worldwide as the ideal marker for diabetes diagnosis and monitoring. High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) is still considered as the “gold standard” method for the measurement of HbA1c. ERBA (India) is proud to introduce Hb-Vario a ‘true HPLC’ platform for HbA1c/HbA2 testing. A unique designed system developed for small to medium size laboratories and physicians.

Product Description:

Hb-Vario is a true HPLC platform for HbA1c testing with HbA2/F flagging. The outstanding feature of the Hb – Vario is, its unique CLE technology, which enables complete elimination of labile glycohemoglobin fraction to ensure accurate quantitation of HbA1c results. The results are available in 3.5 min.
