A new Hb A1c routine dosage method is proposed, using thin-layer isoelectrofocusing. The mean level in normal adults is 4.66% (sigma = 1.05). In diabetic (treated) patients, the distribution of Hb A1c levels is a non-Gaussian one, with extreme values of 3 to 13% and a maximum frequency peak at 5.5%.
