Direct Answer
This rapid test detects Calprotectin in Feces to support IBD. It is a colloidal-gold screening test — a reactive result is presumptive and should be confirmed per the intended use.
Intended Use
Detection of fecal calprotectin for intestinal inflammation.
Clinical Context
Calprotectin distinguishes inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) from functional disorders (IBS).
Test Principle
Colloidal-gold immunochromatography (lateral flow). The device captures the target analyte (antigen or antibody) on a membrane via labeled antibodies, producing a visible test line within minutes. Qualitative or semi-quantitative, intended as a screening/triage aid — not a replacement for confirmatory laboratory testing.
Limitations
Screening aid — not diagnostic; elevated in other gut inflammation.
Procurement
Specimen: feces. Format: cassette. CE-marked line.
Interpretation
| Result | Lines | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Positive | Test + control line | Target detected (presumptive positive) |
| Negative | Control line only | Below cut-off / not detected |
| Invalid | No control line | Repeat with a new device |
Common misconception
An elevated marker is not diagnostic on its own — interpret with clinical context and confirm by reference method.
Sources
Screening results are presumptive, not diagnostic. Confirmatory testing follows WHO, CDC and national regulatory guidance — see screening vs confirmatory.
