What Is Drabkin’s Reagent Used For?

Drabkin’s reagent is used in a classical laboratory method for the quantitative determination of haemoglobin concentration in blood.

In the cyanmethemoglobin / haemiglobincyanide method, haemoglobin is chemically converted into a stable coloured derivative whose intensity can be measured using an appropriate photometer or colorimeter.

The amount of light absorbed by the resulting solution is related to the haemoglobin concentration in the specimen.


How Does the Fe-Cyan / Cyanmethemoglobin Method Work?

The Drabkin method uses ferricyanide/cyanide reaction chemistry.

In simplified terms:

  1. Haemoglobin is released from the red blood cells.
  2. Ferricyanide chemistry converts haemoglobin to methemoglobin.
  3. Methemoglobin reacts further to form cyanmethemoglobin / haemiglobincyanide.
  4. The resulting coloured solution is measured photometrically.
  5. The specimen result is determined according to the validated method and Hb standard supplied with the reagent system.

Drabkin-based methods are commonly measured around 540 nm, but the exact instrument settings and analytical procedure for this BIOLAB product must follow the current manufacturer instructions.


Why Is an Hb Standard Included?

The supplied Haemoglobin Standard provides a reference material for the analytical procedure.

Depending on the BIOLAB method instructions and laboratory setup, the standard may be used as part of the calibration, comparison or calculation procedure required to determine haemoglobin concentration.

Do not assume the standard concentration or calculation factor from another manufacturer's Drabkin kit. Use the concentration printed on the current BIOLAB Hb Standard label supplied with your pack.


Ready-to-Use Drabkin’s Reagent

BIOLAB identifies this Liquistat product as a ready-to-use Drabkin’s reagent.

This reduces the need to prepare the stock reagent from individual chemicals before routine use.

Ready-to-use does not mean that all analytical steps can be omitted. Laboratories still need to follow the manufacturer-specified:

  • Specimen volume
  • Reagent volume
  • Mixing procedure
  • Reaction / incubation time
  • Instrument wavelength
  • Blanking procedure
  • Standard procedure
  • Result calculation
  • Quality-control process

Suitable Specimen – Whole Blood

The Drabkin cyanmethemoglobin procedure is intended for appropriately collected whole-blood specimens.

The exact specimen requirement and anticoagulant must follow the laboratory's validated method and current BIOLAB instructions.

For professional haematology specimen collection, browse the Microsidd Blood Collection Tubes Collection.

Microsidd also supplies K3 EDTA Blood Collection Tubes 2ml for professional whole-blood haematology workflows.


What Equipment Is Required?

The BIOLAB Haemoglobin reagent is intended for an appropriate laboratory colorimetric or photometric workflow.

Depending on the laboratory method, the testing setup may require:

  • Photometer, colorimeter or compatible laboratory instrument
  • Appropriate cuvettes
  • Laboratory test tubes
  • Calibrated micropipettes or laboratory pipettes
  • Whole-blood specimen
  • BIOLAB ready-to-use Drabkin reagent
  • BIOLAB Hb Standard supplied with the pack
  • Applicable laboratory quality-control materials
  • Suitable PPE

Confirm instrument compatibility and exact analytical settings before ordering if the reagent is being purchased for a particular analyser or photometer workflow.


Drabkin Method vs Digital Haemoglobin Meters

Laboratories can measure haemoglobin using different analytical approaches. This BIOLAB product is a reagent-based laboratory method and should not be confused with disposable-strip haemoglobin meters.

Feature BIOLAB Drabkin Reagent Digital Hb Meter
Method Type Laboratory colorimetric / photometric reagent method Meter + compatible disposable strip system
Consumable Liquid reagent + standard Model-specific Hb test strips
Workflow Bench laboratory procedure Portable / point-of-care workflow depending on model
Operator Trained laboratory personnel Depends on the meter's intended use
Best Choice Depends On Laboratory volume, equipment, validated method, turnaround requirements and intended testing environment

For portable haemoglobin testing systems, also see the TrueHb Haemoglobin Meter Combo and Mission / ACON Haemoglobin Meter.


Drabkin Method vs Sahli’s Haemoglobin Method

The BIOLAB Fe-Cyan reagent should also not be confused with the traditional Sahli acid-haematin method.

The Drabkin / cyanmethemoglobin approach relies on photometric measurement of a chemically converted haemoglobin derivative, whereas the traditional Sahli method uses visual colour comparison.

Microsidd also supplies the Haemoglobin HB Tube for Sahli’s Hemoglobinometer for laboratories specifically using that traditional workflow.


Who Is BIOLAB Haemoglobin with Standard Suitable For?

This professional reagent system may be relevant for:

  • Diagnostic laboratories
  • Pathology laboratories
  • Haematology laboratories
  • Hospital laboratories
  • Clinical laboratories
  • Medical colleges
  • Teaching laboratories
  • Research laboratories
  • Institutional laboratory procurement

Important Chemical Safety – Cyanide-Containing Method

Drabkin / Fe-Cyan reagents require appropriate chemical-safety controls.

The cyanmethemoglobin method involves cyanide-containing chemistry. Personnel must therefore:

  • Use appropriate laboratory PPE
  • Never pipette reagent by mouth
  • Avoid ingestion and contact with skin and eyes
  • Follow the current BIOLAB Safety Data Sheet
  • Follow institutional chemical-safety procedures
  • Keep the reagent away from incompatible chemicals
  • Manage spills according to the applicable SDS and laboratory procedure
  • Dispose of used reagent through the approved hazardous laboratory-waste route

Do not dispose of cyanide-containing reagent as ordinary domestic waste or assume it can be poured into a drain. Follow local regulations, institutional hazardous-waste procedures and the current manufacturer SDS.


Storage, Expiry & Reagent Integrity

Store the BIOLAB Haemoglobin reagent and Hb Standard according to the exact storage conditions stated on their current labels and package insert.

Good laboratory practice includes:

  • Keep containers securely closed when not in use
  • Protect reagents from contamination
  • Follow the labelled temperature range
  • Protect from unsuitable heat and light where instructed
  • Do not interchange reagent or standard caps
  • Do not use visibly contaminated material
  • Do not use reagent or standard beyond the labelled expiry date
  • Observe any separate storage instruction printed on the Hb Standard

Expiry varies by batch. Check the current bottle and standard labels supplied with your product rather than relying on an old online expiry date.
