Abstract「要旨」従来から13C-呼気検査用同位体分析計として質量分析計(MS)が使われているが, 測定に熟練を要す, 高価である等の理由から, 臨床での使用の制約となっている. 臨床において, 簡便に使用できかつ信頼性の高い分析計として, レーザ分光法を用いた同位体分析計を開発し, 種々の13C-呼気検査にて, その適用性を評価した. 同一試料の繰り返し測定値の変動は0.65‰(1σ)以下であり, また, 13C-グリシン, 13C-メタセチン, 13C-尿素化合物を経口投与した呼気検査を行い, MSと比較した結果, 非常によく一致し, 有効な分析装置と言える. 「I. はじめに」炭素の安定同位体13Cで標識した化合物を経口投与後, 呼気中に排出された13CO2を分析し, 消化・吸収・代謝機能等の疾患を診断する13C-呼気検査は放射線被曝を伴わずかつ無侵襲な検査方法なので, 成人はもちろん, 乳幼児, 妊婦, 若年成人等広い範囲に適用できることが特徴である.

Abstract[Summary]A new device Tunable Diode Laser Spectroscopy(LS)was developed for the analysis of isotope ratios of 13CO2/12CO2. Its applicability for breath tests was validated. The exhaled breath is collected in a 2l aluminum bag, of which CO2 is separated by cryogenic system and introduced into LS. Repeat measurements(8 times)of two kinds of gasses(δ13C : -2.62 and -1.14%) revealed 0.045% and 0.065% variation(1S. D. ), from which precision of measurement was estimated as 0.2% (3S. D. ). Seven healthy volunteers were given orally different dose of 13C-glycine(50 mg-200 mg in 5 subjects) and 13C methacetin(30 mg and 150 mg in 2 subjects). One patient with gastric ulcer with helicobacter pylori(HP) infection was given 100 mg of 13C-urea. Serial breath samples(9-15) were taken and measured both by LS and mass spectrometer(MS) thereafter. Appreciable peaks were obtained at 30-50 min. after glycine and methacetin ingestions. The height of the peaks were dose dependent. Increased excretion of 13CO2 characteristics to HP infection was obtained in 13C-urea breath test. Measured values with LS were identical with those measured with MS(60 samples) with the range of difference within 0.2%(3S. D. ). [Y(LS)=1.02X(MS)+0.55, r=0.996]We conclude the LS is suitable for various 13C-breath tests.
