Systems and methods for measuring glycated hemoglobin

摘要

Systems and methods for fractionating red blood cells into age-specific groups are disclosed herein. A method of fractionating red blood cells into age-specific groups includes establishing a solution density gradient in a capillary channel (102), applying the sample to the capillary channel (104), and centrifuging the sample in the capillary channel (106), thereby separating the components of the sample by density (108).
