The test involves placing a fecal sample on guaiac paper (containing a phenolic compound, alpha-guaiaconic acid, extracted from the wood resin of Guaiacum trees) and applying hydrogen peroxide which, in the presence of blood, yields a blue reaction product within seconds.
Explain the possible effects of acute iron overdose on guaiac stool testing. The standard guaiac reaction is a bedside chemical test universally used to determine the presence of blood in gastric aspirate, emesis material, or fecal specimens.
