Based on latex agglutination reaction. The HbA1c of the samples is absorbed on the surface of the latex particles, which subsequently react with the anti-HbA1c antibody (antigen-antibody reaction) forming agglomerates which give turbidity to the solution. This turbidity, caused by latex agglutination, is measured photometrically at 660 nm. Using a calibration curve, the concentration of HbA1c in whole blood can be calculated.
