DNA from fecal immunochemical test can replace stool for microbiota-based colorectal cancer screening

2016-04-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background:</h4> There is a significant demand for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening methods that are noninvasive, inexpensive, and capable of accurately detecting early stage tumors. It has been shown that models based on the gut microbiota can complement the fecal occult blood test and fecal immunochemical test (FIT). However, a barrier to microbiota-based screening is the need to collect and store a patien...
