Product Description

Background

“Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer in the world. There were an estimated 14.1 million cancer cases worldwide in 2012, of these 7.4 million cases were in men and 6.7 million in women. This number is expected to increase to 24 million by 2035." (World Cancer Research Fund International).

Colorectal cancer mortality can be reduced if cases are detected and treated early. The hidden blood is not seen with the naked eye and can be detected with the FOB screening test.

Healthy Intestines?

FOBCHECK is a rapid one-step test for the qualitative detection of human haemoglobin in stool samples.

FOBCHECK is designed to help diagnose gastrointestinal disorders and detects human haemoglobin (Hb) with a cut-off level of 40 ng/ml.

In addition to possible intestinal diseases such as diverticulitis, colitis, or colon polyps, blood in the stool sample may indicate an early stage of colorectal cancer.
