Hematology

Image: Sickle SCAN is a multiplexed qualitative point-of-care immunoassay used for the rapid diagnosis of sickle cell disorders. The test is made up of three indicators which detect the presence of hemoglobin A, S, and C, allowing the user to rapidly distinguish between normal, carrier, and sickle cell samples (Photo courtesy of BioMedomics).

Sickle Cell Disease Screening Helps Save Lives of Migrants

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited disorder that affects the production of hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that delivers oxygen to cells throughout the body. This abnormal hemoglobin can cause red blood cells to become rigid and sickle shaped. More...

High-Res Genotyping Improves Survival for Stem Cell Transplantation

Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) provides a curative treatment option for individuals with hematologic diseases. Recipients and donors are considered to be compatible or “well matched” if they share a high degree of genetic similarity at their human leukocyte antigen (HLA) loci. More...
