Product code: LF-IBDOC8
Pack Size: Each
CE Verified: IVDR
Product Information
BÜHLMANN IBDoc® kit for quantitative evaluation of Calprotectin levels by patients at home. Read using smartphone technology.
Calprotectin is a heterodimeric calcium binding protein of the S100 family predominantly found in the cytosolic fraction of neutrophils although it is also found to some extent in monocytes and activated macrophages. The concentration of calprotectin is greater in faeces than in plasma and significantly increased levels are found in patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). The level of calprotectin in the stool of patients with IBD correlates extremely well with both endoscopic and histological assessment of disease activity and mucosal health and so can be used to monitor disease progression, tailor therapy or indeed predict relapse as the calprotectin levels increase before clinical symptoms become apparent.
The CALEX valve allows patients to process their own samples at home without the need for vortex mixing, centrifuging or pipetting. The lever at the base of the CALEX dispenses the precise amount of liquid onto the lateral flow test cassette. After 12 minutes the calprotectin assay is read using a smartphone and the data is transmitted to the clinicians via a secure encrypted web based portal.
The portal allows clinicians to customise the cut off values for each patient and determine if the patient sees the actual quantitative result or a traffic light system
