The RESOLVE™ Hemoglobin Kit use isoelectric focusing (IEF) to detect hemoglobin variants in whole blood, cord blood or blood spot samples. IEF, a high resolution form of electrophoresis, provides greater specificity and sensitivity in hemoglobin separation. The Hemoglobin test method allows specific separation of Hb C from Hb A2 and Hb E, as well as Hb D-Los Angeles, Hb G-Philadelphia and Hb-Lepore from Hb S. Even minor variants such as Hb Bart's in newborns and Hb Constant Spring in adults are detected with IEF.

In addition to its resolving ability and sensitivity, the kit makes isoelectric focusing convenient and economical for any lab. It is designed for use on most horizontal isoelectric focusing systems. The kit includes precast agarose IEF gels, anolyte and catholyte solutions, precut wicks, sample application templates, and blotting paper. It is important to use hemoglobin markers when detecting variants.
