Mineral samples of concentration 1.0&#215;10-1 mM, Vitamin A of concentration 100 IU and 1 mg\/ml for each of vitamins C and E were prepared and HbSS polymerization experiment was carried out by original methods of Noguchi and Schechter, 1978. Absorbance was took at 700 nm and rates of polymerization were calculated.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Observations and results : Copper (P value-0.253) elevated hemoglobin polymerisation by 33.13% while cobalt( P value-0.635) and magnesium( P value-0.099) inhibited polymerisation by 9.30% and 36.04% respectively. Vitamins A ( P value-0.000), C( P value-0.001) and E ( P value-0.015) inhibited hemoglobin polymerisation by 98.25581%, 62.2093%, 65.69767% respectively.\u00a0<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Conclusion : The results reveal nutritional and therapeutic relevance of antioxidant minerals and vitamins in the management of sickle cell anemia and trait.\u00a0<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Keywords : micronutrients, vitamins, hemoglobin polymerisation, sickle cell disease.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/npaa.in\/journal-ijta\/admin\/ufile\/1438602687IJTA_25_1-6.pdf\">PDF<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Priti V.
