Abstract
This invention relates to a method for determining the ratio of glycated to non-glycated haemoglobin in a sample. The method includes contacting the sample with an excess of signal generating molecules to bind to the glycated haemoglobin. The non-bound signal generating molecules are separated from the sample, and the amount or concentration of haemoglobin and the glycated haemoglobin bound signal generating molecules are determined.
