This study is designed to validate a new direct method for the measurement of stool consistency, using Texture Analyser. Forty healthy subjects are enrolled in this trial for collection of stool samples. Every stool produced during 2 collection periods of approximately 60 hours each is collected and subjected to the measurement of consistency using Texture Analyser. The stool consistency results are compared with the Bristol Stool Form Scale scores for each stool. The relationships of stool consistency with other stool parameters, bowel habit and sleeping habit are also evaluated.
