Reported Units
The Quo-Test A1C assay reports results in up to two user selectable units: % DCCT,
mmol/molIFCC,%JDS,eAGmg/dloreAGmmol/l.
mmol/mol IFCC = (% DCCT - 2.15) x 10.929
%JDS=(0.09274xmmol/molIFCC)+1.724
eAG mg/dl = (28.7 x % DCCT) – 46.7
eAG mmol/l = (1.59 x % DCCT) – 2.59
eAG values are based on a correlation study linking % DCCT to the patient’s average
glucose concentration, resulting in published formula to derive the eAG.
eAG values may differ signicantly from a patients glucose level measured at the
same time.
The Quo-Test Analyzer allows the user to select dual reporting (two different
measument units can be displayed) or single reporting. Users should refer to national
guidance when setting up reported units.
% DCCT is the default primary unit, to change the primary reported unit press Change
