Hemoglobin patterns in healthy infants

The post-neonatal changes in the level of hemoglobin A,F and A[2] have been studied by different workers.

The present study aimed at determining the levels of the different types of hemoglobin during the first two years of life in Egyptian infants. The tabulated and graphically presented results have been discussed and compared with the results given in the literature
