Abstract
The applicability of the chromatographic separation of haemoglobins F, A and S on Biorex 70 (Blouquit et al., 1982) for the prenatal diagnosis of thalassaemia and related conditions was evaluated in comparison to the conventional globin chain separation technique. The method proved reliable, inexpensive and rapid and should be considered as a valuable alternative in laboratories carrying out great numbers of tests and those being newly set up for this purpose.Keywords
