Colorectal Screening cancer Programs
Immunostics has been involved in national mass screening for fecal occult blood since the year 1999. It began in England and Scotland, Spain, Canada, Wales and soon will include Northern Ireland. The ability for Immunostics to make a custom slide for each screening program has given Immunostics an edge in securing each of the the above tenders.
Immunostics hema-screen FOBT has been the most consistent in sensitivity and specificity, offering these mass screening programs the ability to compile data with complete confidence in their results. Besides the traditional FOBT, some programs have included iFOBT (immunochecmial FOBT) to supplement their screening programs. By using the patented devel-a-tab card for iFOBT, a unique dry card collection system, the problem of fecal sample breakdown has virtually been eliminated.This dry card method has a stability of 30 days versus the 3-5 days stability of using the tube method. All of the above factors have made each and every one of the screening programs succesful.
We at Immunostics are proud to be part of these programs which have saved many lives and huge amounts of money for each of these nations.
