HbA1c antibody | AbD15783
* Data from triplicate experiments
1. Samples were obtained from heterozygous donors. The values reflect the mmol/mol of abnormal Hb carried by the donor.
The mmol/mol values were calculated using the IFCC standardization formula:
NGSP = [0.09148 x IFCC] + 2.152
* Data from triplicate experiments
Human anti Human HbA1c antibody, clone AbD15783 recognizes HbA1c, i.e. hemoglobin when glycated at the N-terminal valine of the hemoglobin β chain. It does not bind to non-glycated hemoglobin. Besides binding to the normal glycated hemoglobin, it also recognizes the glycated hemoglobin variants HbC, HbE, HbD and to a lesser degree HbS. Elevated HbF cannot be detected due to the absence of the hemoglobin β chain.
The measurement of HbA1c levels is used to identify the average plasma glucose concentration. In Diabetes mellitus, higher levels of HbA1c have been associated with cardiovascular disease and other diseases. Levels of more than 6.5% HbA1c (48 mmol/mol) are used as a criterion to diagnose diabetes.

- The immunogens used in the generation of this antibody were:
A glycated peptide, corresponding to N-terminal 9 amino acids of haemoglobin beta chain coupled to carrier proteins
Purified HbA1c - Affinity
- The affinity of this antibody, as measured against the immunogen, was measured as KD=19 nM by real time, label-free molecular interaction analysis using HbA1c-BSA and HbA1c-TRF conjugates as immobilized antigen.
The affinity of this antibody, as measured against purified HbA1c, was measured as KD=58 nM by real time, label-free molecular interaction analysis using full length HbA1c as immobilized antigen. - Approx. Protein Concentrations
- Total protein concentration 0.5 mg/ml
