A simple and rapid screening test which differentiates sickle-cell trait and sickle-cell anaemia is described. The test utilizes 0.1 ml of whole blood and is based on the low solubility of reduced sickle haemoglobin. Results intermediate between the sickle-cell trait and sickle-cell anaemia are obtained in unusual cases of sickle-cell anaemia with high foetal haemoglobin. The need to supplement the results with haematological and electrophoretic techniques is discusses.
本文描述了一种简单快速的筛查试验,可区分镰状细胞性状和镰状细胞贫血。该试验使用0.1毫升全血,基于还原型镰状血红蛋白的低溶解度。在胎儿血红蛋白含量高的镰状细胞贫血特殊病例中,会得到介于镰状细胞性状和镰状细胞贫血之间的结果。文中讨论了用血液学和电泳技术补充结果的必要性。
