Calprotectin is a protein that is produced by the immune system when inflammation is present. When it occurs in the intestine it is absorbed into the faeces (stool). Faecal calprotectin has been used to detect intestinal inflammation, and can serve as a marker for inflammatory bowel diseases. Calprotectin is useful as a marker, as it is resistant to enzymatic degradation. It is stable in feces for up to seven days at room temperature and has a homogenous distribution in feces, properties which lend it to testing spot fecal samples.

By measuring the amount of calprotectin in the stool it is possible to show whether there is inflammation in the intestine and to assess its severity. The test is useful in helping distinguish between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) such as Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis and non-inflammatory bowel conditions that cause similar symptoms. The inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, are chronic relapsing, remitting disorders. A high level of calprotectin in the faeces is likely to be due to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). If the test comes back with normal or low level it is most likely due to irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), a condition that causes altered bowel habits with no inflammation. Calprotectin levels cannot be used to determine the cause of the IBD and several other tests will be needed for this diagnosis. It is also a very useful test for monitoring IBD flare ups.
