[Comparative evaluation of the immunochromatographic test for detection of hemoglobin.]

The evaluating results of the diagnostic characteristics of an immunochromatographic test for the detection of fecal occult blood (hemoglobin) were presents in the article. The test was approved samples without hemoglobin and model samples containing of standardized preparation of hemoglobin in various concentrations in comparison with two immunochromatographic test systems. The developed test system identified hemoglobin in concentrations higher 50 ng/ml in 99,2% cases, the specificity of the analysis was 98,1%. The obtained levels of sensitivity and specificity were higher the similar parameters for the compared test systems. The immunochromatographic FOB-test can be used for rapid analysis in the primary screening of colorectal cancer.
