Ultimed Fecal Occult Blood (FOB) Pack 20
€67.65 including vat
The ulti med FOB Test is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of Human Occult Blood in feces.
Summary
Many diseases can cause hidden blood in the feces. This is also known as Fecal Occult Blood (FOB), Human Occult Blood, or Human Hemoglobin. In the early stages, gastrointestinal problems such as colon cancer, ulcers, polyps, colitis, diverticulitis, and fissures may not show any visible symptoms, only occult blood. Traditional guaiac-based methods lack sensitivity and specificity, and also have diet restrictions prior to testing.
The ulti med FOB Test is a rapid test to qualitatively detect low levels of Fecal Occult Blood. The test uses a double antibody sandwich assay to selectively detect Fecal Occult Blood at 40ng/ml or higher, or 4.8μg/g feces. In addition, unlike guaiac assays, the accuracy of the test is not affected by the diet of the patients.
