Dear Client,

 

To increase the quality of occult blood testing for our patients we have updated our testing option for Occult Blood, Fecal.  The new test is Fecal Occult Blood-Immunochem; test code 10317. This immunochemical test provides several advantages over the Guaiac method including greater specificity and sensitivity for human hemoglobin, ease of collection, reduction in the number of samples needed (only one required), and no dietary or medicine restrictions.

 

Due to significant improvement over the current guaiac method, as of May 1st, 2011 we will no longer offer Occult Blood, Fecal by guaiac methodology; test code 201. Any specimen received on a card or sterile container will be rejected.  All specimens for occult blood testing must be collected in the specific collection container provided and according to collection instructions for the updated test FOB-I; 10317.   The container will be forwarded to our main laboratory where the result will be determined by our OC-Auto 80 analyzer, removing subjectivity from the analysis.

 

Handling/Draw Instructions:

SAMPLE CONTAINERS ARE PROVIDED BY GAMMA HEALTHCARE.   USING SAMPLING PROBE SCRAPE THE SURFACE OF THE FECAL SAMPLE. COVER THE GROOVED PORTION OF THE PROBE COMPLETELY.  CLOSE THE SAMPLING BOTTLE BY INSERTING THE SAMPLING PROBE AND SNAP CAP TIGHTLY.  DO NOT REOPEN.  ONLY ONE SAMPLE DESIRED; SERIES OF THREE NOT NECESSARY.

 

Specimen Requirements:

TRANSPORT:  COLLECTION VIAL TO GAMMA HEALTHCARE.

REMARKS:  STOOL SHOULD BE PUT INTO COLLECTION DEVICE IMMEDIATELY AFTER COLLECTION.

 

            Specimen Retention:

STABILITY:  STOOL WITHIN THE COLLECTION DEVICE:  AMBIENT: 15 DAYS; REFRIGERATED: 30 DAYS.

 

 

If you are interested in purchasing FOB guaiac kits for your own use they are available from supply at $32.25 per 50 cards with developer or $64.50 per 100 cards with developer.
