Asking for Sister, Female, 24 years old, Narowal

She has a rishta and the male is a carrier of beta thelasimia gene. So if both the spouses will have it then there is a probability that the child will have thelasimia. What is the name of test to check if you are a beta thelasimia carrier

Thank you all for your response, she got hb electropheresis done: HBA :97.4% HBA2: 2.6% and it says that it shows a normal pattern. I hope she is not even a carrier. Please guide.
