Assessment of the effect of hemoglobin variants on routine HbA1c measurements by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry.

We applied electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) to identify hemoglobin (Hb) variants, and to assess the effect of the variants on routine measurements of a glycated Hb, HbA1c. Over the past 8 years, we have diagnosed 83 cases, including 42 kinds of variant Hb, using MS as the main technology. Of these variants, 3 were new, and 9 were the first cases in Japan.
