Colorectal cancer screening test
Biohit is introducing the new ColonView Hb and Hb/ Hp tests, which are intended for simple detection of fecal occult blood in stool samples. The detection of blood is based on sensitive and specific immunochemical detection of human hemoglobin or hemoglobin/haptoglobin complex. The principal application of the tests is to screen for lower gastrointestinal pathologies, such as colorectal cancers and large adenomas that bleed. The quick and simple, one-step lateral flow tests require no dietary restrictions and give results in only 15 minutes.
