Pilot Study for Hemoglobinopathias in Hamburg
- 17 018 newborns have been included in the study- all children born in the greater Hamburg area- no bias- anonymized samples- 321 samples have been excluded because of poor sample quality- First-tier testing : HPLC-analysis (BioRad)- second-tier testing : molecular genetic testing (same sample)

HR/MS may pick up thalassemiasby using the intact protein chains in a more precise way 𝜷𝜷 Thalassemia (minor) should give a α/β- ratio = 2
By comparing the intact protein chains, an unselective trypsin digest of the alpha or beta chains can be avoided

For the identification of Hb S, C, D, E a ratio is calculated by using the equivalent digest sequence of the „healthy Hb b“ chain.(Similar STRATEGY was published Daniel Y.A British Journal of Haematology, 130, 635–643; SpotON a British spin off provides a Hb kit for MSMS)

Several known beta Thal patient samplesfrom the hematological unit (UKE Hamburg) as well as prospectively identified patientshave been analyzed
The calculated cutoff was confirmed(around a/b= 2)
To avoid false negative results we set thecutoff of at 1.6
These samples were applied to a 2nd tiertesting protocol, where a single DBS spot isextracted (without tryptic digest)

Conclusion
• Generally data compares well between both methods• All data can be reprocessed later to assess further variants• HRMS shows robust performance (rare cleaning, ca. 2000 samples)• β-thalassemia more reliably detectable by HRMS• Further confirmed patient samples will be run on both devicesbut• BioRad may be easier to use for HbS only screening programs
