Accutest® iFOBT with 25 Tests and 25 Collection Tubes

The Accutest® immunological fecal occult blood test is a rapid, qualitative, sandwich immunoassay for the determination of fecal occult blood in human stool sample by laboratories or physician offices. It is useful to determine gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding found in a number of gastrointestinal (GI) disorders, example diverticulitis, colitis, polyps and colorectal cancer. This test is recommended for use in routine physical examinations, when hospital patients are first admitted, hospitals monitoring for bleeding in patients, screening for colorectal cancer or gastrointestinal bleeding from any source.
