Calprotectin Assays

Calprotectin is the best marker for IBD. It is an established measure to discriminate IBD from IBS and a very valuable tool to monitor the disease course of IBD patients (Crohn’s and ulcerative colitis). The technology platforms offered by BÜHLMANN range from the gold standard ELISA assay, BUHLMANN fCAL®, to the POC test, Quantum Blue®, to the new IBDoc® home test and to the automated random access BÜHLMANN fCAL® turbo assay. With this portfolio all possible applications for measuring calprotectin are covered from the patient’s home test to the high throughput lab.

CRP

The Quantum Blue CRP test allows for a rapid determination of serum CRP within 22 minutes. It is an ideal tool to accompany the calprotectin determination for establishing an IBD patient inflammation profile during the course of the disease. The combination of the two markers has shown to increase the specificity for detecting inflammation in Crohn’s disease. The ease of use and speed of these two tests on the Quantum Blue® platform make this technology a very convenient addition to the therapy monitoring chronic inflammation of the gut.

Lactose Intolerance Quick Test

Lactose Intolerance Quick Test

The Lactose Intolerance Quick Test developed by Biohit for detecting lactose intolerance (hypolactasia of the small intestine) is based on the activity of the lactase enzyme in a biopsy specimen. The biopsy specimen taken from the mucosa of the upper part of the small intestine is examined immediately. The development of the color in the test liquid after 20 minutes informs whether or not the lactase enzyme is present in  the biopsy specimen.
