Robotic chromatography: development and evaluation of automated instrumentation for assay of glycohemoglobin.

Abstract:

:The measurement of glycohemoglobin (GHb) by boronate affinity chromatography is useful in monitoring long-term glucose control in diabetic subjects. The inherent disadvantage of this method is the hands-on time required because the hemoglobin fractions are separated on individual disposable columns. To overcome this disadvantage, we have programmed a Hamilton Microlab 2200 automated pipetting cartesian robot to complete the procedure, from the aspiration of blood from the sample-collection tube to the transfer of the separated hemoglobin fractions to a microtiter plate for absorbance measurement. This automated robotic system can analyze 96 specimens, including patients' samples and control material, in approximately 3 h. The precision (CV) of the method ranged from 1.6% to 3.5% within-run and from 2.7% to 3.5% day-to-day. The results correlated with those obtained with the Accuflex semiautomated robot, which used the identical disposable column, and those obtained with a Primus high-performance liquid chromatograph, which used a regenerated microparticle column. Automation of the GHb procedure allowed improved throughput, reduced labor cost, improved precision, and offered greater laboratory safety.

  • Use of gel filtration to examine the distribution of calcium among serum proteins.

    abstract::Gel filtration of serum by use of dextran bisacrylamide beads ("Sephacryl S-200," fractionation range: 5000-250 000 daltons), separates the serum proteins into three distinct peaks. We used an eluent containing (per liter) 140 mmol of sodium, 1.10 mmol of calcium, 0.50 mmol of magnesium, and 10 mmol of 2-([2-hydroxy-1...
