Product Description

Human Hemoglobin A1c is a glycosylated form of hemoglobin, belonging to the globin protein family. With a molecular weight of approximately 64,500 Daltons, it plays a significant role in monitoring long-term glycemic control in individuals with diabetes. Hemoglobin A1c is formed when glucose molecules attach to the beta chains of hemoglobin in a non-enzymatic process known as glycation. This stable glycated hemoglobin remains in circulation for around 120 days, providing a reliable indicator of average blood glucose levels over the preceding two to three months. The measurement of Hemoglobin A1c is widely used in clinical settings to assess diabetes management and guide treatment decisions.

*For Research Use Only

If your product is within its expiration period, and has not performed according to expectations, fill out the sample return form. Return the unused sample frozen, with the auto generated packing slip to the address on the instructions. You will receive a full refund along with a replacement of the unused portion (inclusive of the failed test). Damages do not cover any additional costs incurred for failed experimentation. 

Reconstituted store at -20°C or -80°C.We recommend that single use aliquots are prepared to avoid freeze-thaw cycles.

1. Thaw the vial on ice, spin briefly
2. Prepare single-use or stock aliquots. This stage will depend on your final application so please adapt as appropriate. All our proteins are supplied carrier protein-free. If compatible with your work and you are storing at lower concentrations (<50 ug/ml) adding carrier protein is highly advised (usually 1% w/v high purity BSA or equivalent – ensure all buffers are sterile-filtered).
3. Prepare single-use aliquots whenever possible to avoid freeze-thaw cycles which can damage the proteins and reduce bioactivity. Store aliquots at -70 °C (or -20 °C)
4. We recommend sterile filtering after dilution in media or the final working solution
