Multicentre evaluation of the Premier Hb9210 HbA1c analyser.

Background: The accurate and precise quantification of HbA1c is essential for the diagnosis and routine monitoring of patients with diabetes. We report an evaluation of the Trinity Biotech Premier Hb9210 analyser (Bray, Ireland/Kansas City, MO, USA), a boronate affinity chromatography-based high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) system for the measurement of glycated haemoglobin.

Methods: We evaluated the analytical performance of the Hb9210 as part of a multicentre evaluation.
