Three tests for the presence of occult blood in the stools of children were examined; the orthotolidine test, the guaiacum resin test, and a modified reduced phenolphthalain test. The stools of 71 neonates, 33 normal children, and 8 children with suspected gastrointestinal pathology were examined. The 1% orthotolidine test and the guaiacum resin test produced a high number of false positive results in healthy children eating a meat-containing diet. It is concluded that a positive result by these tests is of little diagnostic value in children eating a normal diet.
对三种检测儿童粪便潜血的方法进行了检查；邻联甲苯胺试验、愈创木脂试验和改良还原酚酞试验。对71名新生儿、33名正常儿童和8名疑似胃肠道病变儿童的粪便进行了检查。1%邻联甲苯胺试验和愈创木脂试验在食用含肉饮食的健康儿童中产生了大量假阳性结果。得出的结论是，在正常饮食的儿童中，这些试验的阳性结果几乎没有诊断价值。
