MEDIC, Fecal Occult Blood Card Test Kit 25's

MEDIC Fecal Occult Blood Test (FOB Test) is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of human hemoglobin from blood in fecal. The Fecal Occult Blood Test is a qualitative membrane strip based immunoassay for the detection of human hemoglobin from blood in fecal. In this test procedure, anti-hemoglobin antibody is immobilized in the test line region of the device. After an adequate volume of test specimen is placed in the specimen well, it reacts with hemoglobin antibody coated particles that have been applied to the specimen pad. This mixture migrates chromatographically along the length of the test strip and interacts with the immobilized hemoglobin antibody. If the specimen contains hemoglobin antigen, a colored line will appear in the test line region indicating a positive result. If the specimen does not contain hemoglobin antigen, a colored line will not appear in this region indicating a negative result. To serve as a procedural control, a colored line will always appear at the control line region indicating that proper volume of specimen has been added and membrane wicking has occurred.
