hemoccult--to capitalize or not?
Subject: hemoccult--to capitalize or not?

"The examination was hemoccult-negative."  I  remember getting this wrong in training.  Is "hemoccult" capitalized or is it only capitalized if it's used in a brand name situation, like "Hemoccult strips"? I seem to remember it being sort of like kleenex, like "Give me a kleenex" was not capped but "Kleenex tissue" as a brand name was. Or I could just be wrong. Help!!
