Hb Hebei [α20 (B1) His→Leu; HBA2 :C.62A > T]: A Novel Hemoglobin Variant Found during Measurement of Glycated Hemoglobin

We report a novel hemoglobin (Hb) variant found in a 34-year-old Chinese male during a routine measurement of glycated hemoglobin. The variant resulted in a P3 peak of 27.5% of the total Hb on high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with a glycated hemoglobin mode. However, no abnormal Hb peaks were observed in capillary electrophoresis (CE) with 3.1% Hb A
