Application of 15N amino acid absorption in chronic enteropathy and hepatic diseases in infants

  • 1. Institutul de Tehnologie Izotopica si Moleculara, Cluj-Napoca (Romania)

Description

The aim of this work is to compare the distribution of N-15 (derived from 15N-glycine) between body fluids of infants in healthy subjects and in subjects suffering from intestinal malabsorption. The data obtained so far support the idea that the malabsorption group has lower 15N elimination in urine and higher elimination in faeces. 5 refs, 5 tabs
