titleOfInvention | Sugar breath test and sugar absorption test for assessment of gut function |
abstract | The present invention relates to a diagnostic method for assessing the functioning and/or structural integrity of the gut in animal subjects. The method of the present invention is predicated on assessing the absorption and/or metabolism of one or more test sugars or functional equivalents such as phosphorylated sugars, oligopeptides or oligonucleotides in an animal subject, wherein the level and/or rate of absorption or metabolism of each molecule is examined to give an overall indication of gut functioning and/or gut structural integrity in the animal subject. The methods of the present invention have inter alia medical and diagnostic applications in humans, such as for the diagnosis of various pathologies associated with changes in gut function or permeability. Furthermore, the methods of the present invention may also be applied to assess gut function or structural integrity in other animal, including avian, species. |
