Hemoccult II Dispensapak Plus Test Kit is a rapid, qualitative method for detecting fecal occult blood, which may indicate gastrointestinal disease. The Hemoccult test is recommended for professional use as a diagnostic aid during routine physical examinations, for hospital patients to monitor gastrointestinal bleeding in those with iron deficiency anemia, or for patients recuperating from surgery, peptic ulcers, ulcerative colitis, and other conditions. It is also used in screening programs for colorectal cancer when patient instructions are closely followed. Serial fecal specimen analysis is recommended when screening asymptomatic patients. The Hemoccult test and other unmodified guaiac tests are not recommended for use with gastric specimens.

The Hemoccult test is a simplified and standardized variation of the laboratory guaiac procedure for detecting occult blood. It contains specially prepared, stabilized guaiac paper, ready for use without additional preparation. The test is based on the oxidation of guaiac by hydrogen peroxide to a blue-colored compound. If the heme portion of hemoglobin is present in the fecal specimen, its peroxidase activity catalyzes the oxidation of alpha guaiaconic acid (active component of the guaiac paper) by hydrogen peroxide (active component of the developer) to form a highly conjugated blue quinone compound.
