Glucose-6-Phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is an enzyme present in the cytoplasm of all cells in the body and protects red blood cells from certain attacks. The anomaly is genetically inherited in a recessive manner, linked to the X chromosome. Currently, an estimated 420 million individuals lack G6PD worldwide and its incidence varies between 1-25% in some African populations. This was an analytical cross-sectional study with prospective data collection that took place from May to November 2018, i.e. six (6) months. Our study included 108 blood donors, 88 men and 20 women. The samples were stored at 2-8 ° C for 24 hours while awaiting handling. The determination of the enzymatic activity of G6PD was carried out by the spectrophotometric method using a commercially available kit. 02/108 subjects studied (ie a prevalence of 1.85%) were deficient in our study. These two deficit were mostly young and between 18-25 years old only male. They were originally from the plateau and observed in the blood transfusion station (PTS) of the Talangai referral hospital. The mean hemoglobin value in normal subjects was 12.53 g / dl in men and 11.3 g / dl in women. In contrast, the average hemoglobin value was 10.45 g / dl in the deficient patients. The mean value of G6PD enzyme activity in normal subjects was 11.7 IU / g hemoglobin in men, 11.54 IU / g hemoglobin in women and in deficient subjects was 2.83 IU / g hemoglobin. As the results of our study show, G6PD deficiency affects hemoglobin levels.
