pubmed:abstractText |
Haemoglobin E is a variant haemoglobin that can lead to considerable morbidity in compound heterozygous states with beta thalassaemia. Therefore, its detection is important because it permits antenatal counselling. The parts of the world where haemoglobin E is prevalent are resource poor and detection can therefore be problematical. A simple visual test using 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol (DCIP) has been developed in Thailand, but its use has not become widespread. This test has now become available in kit form.
