A rapid one-step test for the qualitative detection of Human Occult Blood in feces.
The FOB Rapid Test Cassette is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of human occult blood in feces.

Many diseases can cause hidden blood in 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, but only occult blood. The FOB Rapid Test Cassette is a rapid test for the qualitative detection of low levels of Fecal Occult Blood. The test uses a dual antibody sandwich assay to selectively detect Fecal Occult Blood at 50 ng/mL or higher, or 6 μg/g feces. In addition, unlike guaiac tests, the accuracy of the test is not affected by the patients' diet. The FOB Rapid Test Cassette (Feces) is a qualitative, lateral flow immunoassay for the detection of Human Occult Blood in feces. The membrane is pre-coated with anti-hemoglobin antibody on the test line zone of the test. During testing, the sample reacts with the particle coated with anti-hemoglobin antibody. The mixture migrates chromatographically upward across the membrane by capillary action to react with the anti-hemoglobin antibody on the membrane and generate a colored line. The presence of this colored line in the test line zone indicates a positive result, while its absence indicates a negative result. To verify the procedure, a colored line always appears in the control line area, indicating that the correct volume of sample has been added and that the membrane has retained the fluid.
