Disease Area: Dyspepsia and Reflux

The BIOHIT GastroPanel Quick Test is a rapid and quantitative immunochromatographic test for the detection of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) and atrophic gastritis in a clinic or point-of-care setting.

Preventis SmarTest Pro Vitamin D is a rapid test system for the quantitative determination of 25(OH) vitamin D in finger-prick blood samples, ideal for GPs, pharmacies and outpatient clinics. This quantitative test supports fast and effective vitamin D supplement optimisation, and enables close monitoring of 25(OH) vitamin D levels in a point of care setting. The kit contains everything needed to prepare, collect and test a finger-prick blood sample in combination with the SmarTest Vitamin D app.

BIOHIT’s series of unified kits feature methods that have been standardised across all analytes and optimised for automation. This assay is part of the BIOHIT GastroPanel product.

Most people experience stomach discomfort, upsets, or abdominal pain at some point throughout their lives and in the majority of cases these are caused by transient issues or functional dyspepsia.

The BIOHIT Gastrin-17 kit is a microplate-based quantitative ELISA for the determination of human amidated gastrin-17 from plasma or serum samples. This test identifies Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)-infected patients who have advanced atrophic gastritis in the gastric antrum.

The BIOHIT H. pylori Quick Test is a rapid, one-step urease test to detect H. pylori infection from a biopsy sample during gastroscopy. It can also be used to evaluate the success of eradication therapy. This easy-to-use, gel-based test employs a simple colour indicator that allows easy visual confirmation of positive results in as little as two minutes – and negative results after 30 minutes – without specialist training.

The BIOHIT UFT300 Helicobacter pylori Quick Test is an ultra-fast urease test that has revolutionised the way H. pylori infection is diagnosed and reported in gastroscopy. With extremely high accuracy and every result available within five minutes, this ready-to-use test is the choice for endoscopists.

The BIOHIT Total 25OH Vitamin D ELISA is a quantitative immunoenzymatic assay for the determination of 25-hydroxyvitamins D2 and D3 (25OHD2 and 25OHD3) in serum and plasma, to aid in the diagnosis of vitamin D deficiency, insufficiency or intoxication.

The BIOHIT Active B12 (holotranscobalamin) ELISA directly measures holotranscobalamin (holoTC) – the biochemically active form of vitamin B12 – from human serum. This test is well-suited for the screening of patients with a suspected vitamin B12 deficiency, and overcomes the problems associated with traditional testing methods that measure total, rather than just active, vitamin B12 concentration.

Peptest is an innovative, non-invasive diagnostic test to help identify reflux, and is especially critical in detecting silent reflux. Based on quantitative lateral flow technology, Peptest detects the presence of pepsin in clinical samples from the upper digestive and respiratory tracts.

The BIOHIT Lactose Intolerance Quick Test supports the diagnosis of lactose intolerance (hypolactasia of the small intestine) by detecting lactase enzyme activity in a duodenal biopsy specimen.

The BIOHIT Pepsinogen II kit is a microplate-based quantitative ELISA for the determination of human pepsinogen II from plasma or serum samples. This test is intended as an additional tool in the diagnosis of atrophic corpus gastritis, which is also a risk state for gastric cancer.

The BIOHIT Pepsinogen I kit is a microplate-based quantitative ELISA for the determination of human pepsinogen I from plasma or serum samples. This test is intended to identify patients who have advanced atrophic gastritis in the gastric corpus, and are therefore at increased risk of developing gastric cancer.

The IDK H. pylori Stool Antigen ELISA is used for the detection of H. pylori in stool samples, for confirmation of active H. pylori infection in the absence of atrophic gastritis, bleeding ulcer and use of proton pump inhibitors.
