Description
Status iFOBT Kit is the complete Status iFOBT package: 30 immunochemical fecal occult blood tests with 50 mailing envelopes and 50 sample collection tubes for home and office collection. The system is CLIA waived and qualitatively detects human hemoglobin in fecal specimens.
- Complete Starting Package – Tests, collection tubes and mailing envelopes arrive together, so a program launches without separate refill orders.
- Human Hemoglobin Specific – Immunochemical targeting of human hemoglobin reduces false positives and removes dietary restrictions.
- Home or Office Collection – Patients collect where they are, with patient-friendly instructions and a non-invasive method.
The Complete iFOBT Kit for Screening Programs
This kit is the whole iFOBT workflow in one box: 30 tests plus the collection logistics for a home screening program, with 50 sample collection tubes and 50 mailing envelopes. The Status iFOBT test qualitatively detects human hemoglobin in fecal specimens and is CLIA waived, with superior sensitivity and specificity in the manufacturer's reporting. Its human hemoglobin specificity reduces false positives, and only one test device is needed per determination. The procedure is an easy one step once the specimen returns. Patients collect in the office or at home under patient-friendly instructions, with no dietary or drug restrictions before testing. Refills for devices, tubes and envelopes are listed separately when the program scales.

Why Choose the Status iFOBT Kit
Starting a screening program from separate components invites a missing piece at the first mailing. This kit ships the complete workflow, tests and collection logistics together, under one item number. For program launches and restocks alike, that completeness is the difference.
- Launch-Ready Box – A new program can mail its first collection kits the day the box arrives.
- Surplus Collection Logistics – Fifty tubes and envelopes against 30 tests leaves margin for re-collections and losses.
- Restriction-Free Collection – No dietary or drug restrictions before testing supports higher return and completion rates.
