The human erythrocyte is freely permeable to glucose. Within each
erythrocyte a slow, continuous, non-enzymatic process between
hemoglobin A and various sugars takes place. The product formed is
known as glycated hemoglobin, or glycohemoglobin.
The chronic elevated blood sugar level of persons with diabetes
mellitus will over time cause damage to the small vessels of the
body. This damage develops slowly over years and is known to cause
late complications. Good metabolic control, i.e. lowering the HbA1c
concentration, has proven to delay the onset and slow the
progression of diabeteslate complications. It is concluded that
measurements of HbA1c can be used to diagnose diabetes mellitus.
When in agreement with national regulations, FluroLitTM HbA1c Test
can be used as an aid in the diagnosis of
diabetes and as an aid in identifying patients who may be at risk
for developing diabete.
Refer to Fiatest TM Go Fluorescence Immunoassay Analyzer Operation Manual for the
complete instructions on use of the Test. The test should be
conducted in room temperature.
Allow the test, specimen, buffer and/or controls to reach room
temperature (15-30°C) prior to testing.
1. Turn on the Analyzer power. Then according to the need, select
“Standard test” or “Quick test” mode.
2. Take out the ID card and insert it into the Analyzer port.
3. Whole blood: Transfer 10 μL whole blood into the buffer tube
with pipette; mix the specimen and the buffer throughly.
4. Add diluted specimen with a Pipette: Pipette 75μL diluted
specimen into the sample well of the test cassette. Start the timer
at the same time.
5. There are two test modes for Fiatest TM Go Fluorescence Immunoassay Analyzer, Standard Test mode and Quick
Test mode. Please refer to the user manual of Fiatest TM Go Fluorescence Immunoassay Analyzer for details.
“Quick test” mode: Insert the test cassette into the Analyzer at 10
minutes after sample application and click "Test", the Analyzer
will automatically give the test result after a few seconds.
“Standard test” mode: Insert the test cassette into the Analyzer
immediately after sample application, click "New test" at the same
time, the Analyzer will automatically counting down 10 minutes.
After the countdown, the Analyzer will give the result at once.
