Ranges of Thalassemia, Sickling, and Anemia Test Panels
Widely Used Thalassemia Diagnosis Panel
High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) is a widely used advanced method that can separate, identify, and quantify different variations of hemoglobin to diagnose thalassemia and sickle cell anemia or to nullify the same.
Another name of this panel is Hemoglobin Variant Analysis.
The Hb HPLC test can efficiently tell whether there is a thalassemia or a sickle cell disorder, or a further investigation is necessary to find the root cause of the anemia.
Hereditary Anemial and Thalassemia Screenings (5)
Hemoglobin A2
Hemoglobin C
Hemoglobin D
Hemoglobin F
Hemoglobin S
A Powerful Method to Detect and Measure Anemia
Hemoglobin molecule carries oxygen in the blood to different cells of the body. Electrophoresis offers a reliable tool for early, accurate detection of abnormalities in hemoglobin. The presence of abnormal hemoglobin variants can lead to impaired oxygen supply to the cells of the body and blood disorders.
An Hb Electrophoresis test diagnoses anemia, sickle cell anemia, and thalassemia more accurately and effectively than a conventional thalassemia or sickling test.
Hemoglobin Electrophoresis (5)
Hemoglobin A
Hemoglobin A2
Hemoglobin S
Hemoglobin F (if detected)
Other (if detected)
A Powerful Mode to Detect the Micro Sickle Cells
Light microscopy is an advanced and more accurate technique that can detect sickle cells or hemoglobin S in a blood sample. The test examines complications like blockages in blood vessels, reduced oxygen delivery to tissues, hemolytic anemia, or another condition.
Sickle Cell Light Microscopy (1)
Hb S Detection
A Low Cost Simple Method to Screen Sickling
It’s a rapid flow cytometry method that screens for the presence or absence of a Hb S type or a sickle cell. A positive report needs to be confirmed by an HPLC or Hb Electrophoresis test
SICKLING (1)
Rapid Sickle Cell Test
An Advanced and Complete Panel to Diagnose Thalassemia, Sickle Cells, and Anemia with a Full-body Checkup
This is a master package for thalassemia and anemia assessment with 17 full panels to diagnose anemia, sickling, thalassemia, nutrients, organ function, hemogram, diabetes, thyroid, and other abnormalities.
This is one of the top full-body checkup packages for anemia, thalassemia, malnutrition, and other comorbidity checkups.
Unlike a routine full-body checkup package, this panel mostly focuses on anemia, thalassemia, sickle cell, and other relevant disorders.
The package is also very affordable as compared to the tests included. You’re getting more than 70% discount on this special package.

More about Thalassemia, Sickling, and Anemia Panels of Blood Tests
Anemia of any type can create many complicated health issues, which can sometimes be life-threatening.
An anemia-caused health disorder can have one or two of many reasons. The most prominent reasons can be as follows:
- Thalassemia
- Sickling
- Iron deficiency
- Nutrition deficiency
- Normocytic anemia
- Microcytic anemia
- Other conditions
Thalassemia and sickle cell diseases (SCD) are inborn or inherited. Other conditions may be due to lifestyle or environmental effects.
A proper diagnosis can help differentiate the causes of anemia and detect the type of anemia. It can also help provide adequate information about it to help your doctor apply a proper treatment approach. An adequate diagnosis is the first step.
Blood tests like hemoglobin variant analysis (HPLC), hemoglobin electrophoresis, iron deficiency studies, nutrient level analysis, complete hemogram, complete blood picture, and a few other examinations can help determine the accurate reasons for anemia and its impact on overall health.
HPLC is a reliable method to identify anemia. A Light Microscopy test detects sickle cells efficiently and accurately. Hematological indices can differentiate between iron deficiency anemia and sickle cell anemia.
A complete and comprehensive anemia profile includes all parameters that can help in diagnosing anemia effectively and assessing its impact on overall health
-
Which are the two widely used methods to diagnose thalassemia?
Hemoglobin Electrophoresis and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) are two widely used methods to detect thalassemia.
-
What is the difference between a rapid sickling test and a light microscopy test to detect sickle cells?
A rapid immunoassay to detect sickle is a low-cost test and less reliable. A positive result of a rapid test needs to be reconfirmed by a light microscopy test. Light microscopy tests are highly sensitive.
-
Can a CBC test detect anemia?
A CBC test can suspect an anemia disease. But the test, adequately and effectively, can't differentiate the actual reason for the anemia.
-
Can an Iron Profile detect anemia?
Only if it's an iron deficiency anemia can the tests in an iron profile detect anemia, but for other types of anemia, an iron deficiency profile can't help diagnose them.
-
What is the best way to diagnose anemia?
A complete blood test panel with assorted ranges of multiple parameters, including HPLC, Hb electrophoresis, mentzer index, iron studies, nutrition level analysis, and complete blood picture, can be the best way to diagnose anemia.
-
What are the top blood tests to diagnose anemia?
There are many blood tests to diagnose anemia. The widely used tests are:
- Complete Hemogram
- Complete Blood Picture with RBC Smear
- Mentzer Index
- Iron Deficiency Study
- Serum Ferritin
- Folate
- Vitamin B12
- Beta Thalassemia Screening by HPLC
- Hemoglobin Electrophoresis
- Nutrient Levels and Blood Toxicity
-
How much does an anemia test cost?
The cost of an anemia test depends on several factors such as test types, number of parameters, lab standard, location, discounts, etc. Depending on these factors, an anemia test price varies from a few hundred rupees to a few thousand rupees in India.
