Abstract:
Objective To investigate the stability of glycated hemoglobin HbA1c in whole blood sample measured by Tosoh G7, Roche/Hitachi 7170A and NycoCard READER Ⅱ under different storage conditions. Methods Three whole blood samples (EDTA anticoagulated) with different glycated hemoglobin levels and one whole blood sample (heparin anticoagulated) were collected and stored at -80 ℃, -20 ℃, 4 ℃,room temperature(15 -25 ℃), and 37 ℃ HbA1c was analyzed by each method on days 1, 2, 5, 7, 9, 14, 21,28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63 and 70 respectively. Results The results of sample stored at -80 ℃ appear to be stable for Tesoh G7 and Roche/Hitachi 7170A method. The coefficients of variation (CV) for Tosoh G7 was 0.54%-1.22%. The CV for Roche/Hitachi 7170A was 0.86% -1.82%. When samples was detected with Tosoh G7 method, the results was consistent when the sample was stored at -20 ℃ for 14 days, 4 ℃ for 63 days, room temperature for 5 days, and 37 ℃ for less than 1 day. When samples was detected with Roche/Hitachi 7170A method, the results was consistent when the samples was stored at -20 ℃ for 21 days, 4 ℃ for 42 days, room temperature for 7 days, and 37 ℃ for less than 1 day. The NycoCard READER Ⅱ showed stability at 4 ℃ for 9 days, and room temperature for less than 1 days. Conclusions The stability of whole blood samples is dependent on different methods. Storage time under different temperatures is different.
