Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Hemoglobin electrophoresis is a blood test that can detect different types of hemoglobin . It uses the principles of gel electrophoresis to separate out the various types of hemoglobin and is a type of native gel electrophoresis . The test can detect abnormal levels of HbS, the form associated with sickle cell disease , as well as other abnormal hemoglobin related blood disorders, such as hemoglobin C . It can also be used to determine whether there is a deficiency of any normal form of hemoglobin, as in the group of diseases known as thalassemia s. Different hemoglobins have different charges, and according to those charges and the amount, hemoglobins move at different speeds in the gel whether in alkaline gel or acid gel.The hemoglobin electrophoresis is also known to be thalessemia screening, this also can be helpful for the patient who is frequently need of fresh blood transfusion. The patient needs blood transfusion because the body is unable to produce enough hemoglobin to satisfy the body s requirement. See Hemoglobinopathy Migration patterns Migration Patterns .

Hemoglobin Barts consists of four gamma chains. It is moderately insoluble, and therefore accumulates in the red blood cells. It has an extremely high affinity for oxygen, resulting in almost no oxygen delivery to the tissues. It is produced in the disease alpha thalassemia and in the most severe of cases, it is the only form of haemoglobin in circulation. In this situation, a fetus will develop hydrops fetalis and normally die before or shortly after birth, unless intrauterine blood transfusion is performed. Since Hemoglobin Barts is elevated in alpha thalassaemia, it can be measured, providing a useful screening test for this disease in some populations. ref Cite journal author F. P. van der Dijs , M.
