2008, Gastroenterology Clinics of North AmericaCitation Excerpt :These tests do not react with nonhuman hemoglobin or with foods that contain peroxidase activity and are therefore more specific than guaiac tests. They detect only human hemoglobin from the lower, not the upper, gastrointestinal tract [28]. There has been no RCT of a fecal immunochemical test (FIT), but there have been numerous observational studies, including studies comparing an immunochemical test to Hemoccult.
