Comparison of faecal calprotectin using two collection and extraction strategies for the BÃHLMANN CALEX® Cap â possible implications for clinical cut-offs?

The study shows that collection of a faecal sample using the CALEX® Cap works well and is a good alternative to using standard containers. The correlation gives rise to the possibility that faecal calprotectin is not stable when collected into standard collection containers. Prior to further roll-out of this process, questions surrounding the current cut-offs would need to be addressed.
