US Patent:

6432382, Aug 13, 2002

Filed:

Oct 20, 2000

Appl. No.:

09/692941

Inventors:

Devendra Indulal Mehta - Cherry Hill NJ

Assignee:

The Nemours Foundation - Wilmington DE

International Classification:

A61K 5100

US Classification:

424 91, 424 181, 424 93

Abstract:

The invention provides a diagnostic test for gastrointestinal disorders by providing a safe, convenient, reliable method for measuring gastric emptying. In this test, a tracer amount of C-glutamine or C-glutamic acid is added to a liquid meal, or C-glutamic acid added to a solid meal. After digestion in the stomach, the meal is emptied into the small bowel, where the labeled C-tracer is immediately taken up and metabolized by the cells lining the small bowel. The released CO is detected in the breath. The measurement of rise in the level of CO as a function of time is correlated to the rate of gastric emptying.
