| | Product Description | |
| The use of guaiac as a test for the presence of blood is based on the oxidation of phenolic compounds present in guaiac to quinones, resulting in the production of a blue color. If blood is present, the heme portion of the hemoglobin molecule can function in a pseudoenzymatic manner, catalyzing the release of oxygen from hydrogen peroxide which in turn causes the oxidation of guaiac. HemaPrompt is a version of the laboratory guaiac slide test for fecal occult blood, and is composed of guaiac-impregnated paper mounted on a cardboard frame which permits sample applications to one side with development and interpretation from the reverse side. | |
