InSure FIT is a fecal immunochemical test based upon the immunochemical detection of human hemoglobin as an indicator of blood in the stool. The assay uses a monoclonal antibody to capture human hemoglobin on a test strip during test development. In contrast to guaiac-based fecal occult blood tests, InSure FIT detects the globin portion of hHb, not the heme. Since globin does not survive passage through the upper gastrointestinal (g.i.) tract, the presence of globin in the stool indicates bleeding in the colon or rectum. InSure FIT possesses characteristics that differentiate it from other fecal occult blood tests: Simple, patient-friendly sampling replaces unpleasant fecal collection or smearing. No dietary or medicinal restrictions. Up to 66% more patient compliance than a guaiac-based fecal occult blood test was found in one study. UOM: 8KT/CS.
