A1C Testing Supplies

The A1C is the new standard name for blood level tests that have variously been called glycated hemoglobin, glycohemoglobin, glycosylated hemoglobin, HbA1c. It describes a series of stable minor hemoglobin components formed slowly and nonenzymatically from hemoglobin and glucose. Your A1C level provides you with your glycemic history of the previous 120 days, since that is the average life span of your red blood cells. The A1C “most accurately reflects the previous 2-3 months of glycemic control,” according to the American Diabetes Association's Position Statement on Tests of Glycemia in Diabetes. Choose from our collection of accurate A1c Test Kits that allow you to test right from the comfort of your own home.
