ABSTRACT:
Fecal occult blood tests of enhanced sensitivity, specificity, and readability are provided by employing (1) a developer or complete reagent solution that uses as a solvent system a solvent comprising at least about 50% by volume of a solvent for iron protoporphyrins such as dimethyl sulfoxide and/or (2) a multi-chromagen comprised of a mixture of guaiac and ABTS. Test results may be further improved by incorporating hemoprotein solubilizing agents, plant peroxidase inhibitors, iron/copper chelating agents, accelerators and buffers in the developer/reagent.
