This was initially as the market leader for guaiac-based faecal occult blood testing. We won tenders for bowel screening in all four UK countries, as each launched its own screening programme. Continuing to provide leading edge products, Alpha Laboratories introduced the first faecal immunochemical testing (FIT) method for screening, initially being awarded the contract for quantitative FIT as the front line test in the Scottish Bowel Screening Programme. We then assisted with the roll-out of FIT in the Welsh and Northern Ireland Bowel Screening programs. In addition, we have actively worked with NICE to incorporate FIT into the pathway for patients with suspected lower GI cancer. Combining a highly sensitive and specific test with logistics support, we are helping to roll out FIT for symptomatic testing right across the UK. This is leading to an improvement in the patient care pathway and a reduction in colonoscopy referrals, similar to that experienced with the introduction of calprotectin. With extensive experience in faecal diagnostic indicators Alpha Laboratories has championed calprotectin testing for almost two decades and supported the NICE review (DG 11) of calprotectin for differentiation between Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). As calprotectin testing has developed, the BÜHLMANN assay range has continued to evolve. This has enabled us to work in partnership with clinics and laboratories, providing solutions for improved patient care and management, throughout the pathway for both screening and monitoring. In addition to this expertise in FIT and Calprotectin testing, Alpha Laboratories offers a range of other tests to assist clinicians in the assessment of digestive disorders.
