Performing clinical diagnostic analysis on hemoglobin concentration is a common blood test. These types of analyses are performed on a hemoglobin analyzer. Hemoglobin analyzers (also referred to as HbA1c Analyzer) can report the concentration of hemoglobin in a blood or urine sample in g/L, g/dL, or mol/L. HbA1c Analyzers can run tests with samples as small as 1uL in just a few minutes.
Hemoglobin is a protein that contains iron that is found inside each red blood cell (RBC) that transports oxygen throughout the body. Other than oxygen, hemoglobin also binds to other gases such as, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and nitric oxide. There are different types of hemoglobins some of which are known to cause diseases such as sickle-cell anemia. Hemoglobin A is the most common variant.

Description | Quo-Lab® HbA1c is a semi-automated desktop point-of-care analyzer for measuring glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c).
The semi-automated analyzer has been designed specifically to meet the needs of diabetes clinics and laboratories in settings that demand low cost of operation and ease of use.
From a Quo-Lab® HbA1c is a semi-automated desktop point-of-care analyzer for measuring glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c).
The semi-automated analyzer has been designed specifically to meet the needs of diabetes clinics and laboratories in settings that demand low cost of operation and ease of use.
From a simple procedure, Quo-Lab provides lab-accurate test results within four minutes (CV < 3% at 7% A1c) from a venous or finger prick blood sample of just 4 µl. Quo-Lab uses the same boronate affinity methodology used by Quo-Test® HbA1c and is similarly unaffected by Hb variants.
Step by step instructions are displayed on a clear, multi-lingual display. Staff training time can therefore be minimised and the opportunity for error is reduced.
Quo-Lab HbA1c can store over 7,000 results which can be downloaded as text files to a PC via the integrated USB interface. Alternatively, results can be printed using a printer which connects via a serial port.
Quo-Lab has received its CE mark and is available for sale in most global markets subject to local registration requirements.
Features:
- Affordable A1c testing
-
Semi-automated analyzer
-

The EKF Hemo Control hemoglobin analyzer uses the innovative NXT microcuvette technology to deliver a quick and easy sampling procedure that also minimises Hemo Control is easy to use and delivers results with a CV of < 2% for hemoglobin and hematocrit within 25 seconds from one small sample.
The EKF Hemo Control hemoglobin analyzer uses the innovative NXT microcuvette technology to deliver a quick and easy sampling procedure that also minimises waste. NXT microcuvettes have been designed with a large opening to collect the blood sample, meaning that users can hold the cuvette at almost any angle to gather the blood sample from the patient. The NXT microcuvette also features a slot at the rear of the sample chamber that allows trapped air to escape. Trapped air in a blood sample will deliver inaccurate results, so by getting it right first time the Hemo Control NXT microcuvette keeps costs and patient discomfort to a minimum.
