Product Description:
H. Pylori Rapid Test kit: Infrared Spectrometer 13C Urea Breath Test for the clinical diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori (H. Pylori) infection. As 13C is a kind of stable isotope, 13C Breath Test is applicable for all ages and types of subjects, including pregnant women and young children.
Infrared Spectrometer 13C-Urea Breath Test Principle:
H. pylori produce an enzyme, urease, which catalyzes the hydrolysis of urea to ammonium and carbon dioxide. H. pylori require the alkaline ammonium in order to establish an optimal local mucosal environment within the acidic milieu of the stomach. The produced carbon dioxide (CO2) is diffused into the blood vessels and is further transported as bicarbonate to the lungs where it is exhaled as CO2 with the exhaled air. This is used in the Urea Breath Test method (UBT).
When performing the UBT, the patient is given an oral dose of 13C labeled urea. If H. pylori are present in the stomach, hydrolysis takes place, and the produced CO2 will contain the labeled 13C. In the absence of hydrolysis, all of the administered urea will pass through the stomach intact to be absorbed further down in the gastrointestinal tract, and excreted in the
urine.
Bacteria other than H. pylori that found in the gastric flora. The presence or absence of a H. pylori infection can thus be determined by detecting if labeled CO2 is present in exhaled air shortly after intake of labeled urea.
The Infrared Spectrometer 13C-Urea Breath Test offers advantages as below:
Accurate: Sensitivity 95%, specificity 95%-100%.
Comfortable : Non-invasive, no endoscopic tube insertion, well tolerated by patients.
Convenient : Near-patient testing, analysis made on site, minimal inconvenience for patients.
Simple : Easy operation, no special handling required.
Swift : The entire test is finished in 45 minutes, test result available on site.
Operation procedure:
1. Blow up the first breath bag as baseline breath
2. Take one 13C Urea capsule and wait for 30 minutes
3. Blow up the second breath bag
4. Test two bags of breath samples with Breath Test Analyzer HCBT-01
