Hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells that transports oxygen throughout the body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhy should you have Hb Electrophoresis tested?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis test is useful for diagnosing blood disorders such as sickle cell anemia, thalassemia, or other hemoglobinopathies. It can also be used to identify carriers of these diseases, which is particularly helpful for family planning and prenatal screening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhat does it indicate?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHb Electrophoresis helps determine the presence and quantity of abnormal hemoglobin variants in the blood, which can be indicative of certain genetic or acquired blood disorders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhat does a high level of abnormal hemoglobin mean?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA high level of abnormal hemoglobin can indicate a blood disorder such as sickle cell disease or a form of thalassemia. It suggests that a significant amount of abnormal hemoglobin is being produced by the body, which can affect the function of red blood cells.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhat does a low level of abnormal hemoglobin mean?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA low level of abnormal hemoglobin may suggest that the person is a carrier of a genetic disorder without having the disorder themselves. It can also indicate the absence of a hemoglobinopathy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BloedCheckup","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47945975988570,"sku":"","price":53.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0814\/6816\/2394\/files\/Hb-Electroferese.png?v=1755941650","url":"https:\/\/store.bloedcheckup.nl\/products\/hb-electroferese","provider":"BloedCheckup","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
