This assay is useful for diagnosing Diabetes and evaluating long-term control of blood glucose concentrations in diabetic patients. It reflects the mean glucose concentration over the previous period of 8 to 12 weeks and is a better indicator of long-term glycemic control as compared with blood glucose levels due to lesser day-to-day variation. |
