Serum haptoglobin has been advocated as an indicator of intravascular hemolysis. We have evaluated a nephelometric determination of serum haptoglobin. The assay is sensitive and exhibits within-run precision in the range of 2.5-7.4% coefficient of variation (CV) and between-run precision of 7.0% (CV). In addition, when haptoglobin values determined with the nephelometric assay were compared with hemoglobin-binding capacity determined by electrophoresis, the correlation coefficient was 0.968. The assay is essentially independent of phenotype and free of significant interference by hemolysis. The clinical correlation of haptoglobin values obtained for 100 selected patients with the nephelometric technique correlated well, if less than 250 mg/L, with the presence of hemolytic disease.
