Targeted MS/MS Hemo
The newborn screening kit for hemoglobinopathy evaluation, Targeted MS/MS Hemo, is a qualitative analytical test for newborn screening for hemoglobin (Hb)-related conditions such as sickle cell disease. This test is based on the detection by mass spectrometry of peptides generated during the digestion of normal Hb and/or variants (HbA, HbA2, HbC, HbDPunjab/Los Angeles, HbE, HbF, HbOArab and HbS) of the patient.
