Explanation Section
The ¹³C Urea Breath Test (UBT) is considered as the gold standard for non-invasive detection of GI tract infections & related disorders.
In contrast, ¹³C UBT or ABT (if used at all) lacks clinical viability due to limitations in detectability and accuracy.
NON-RADIOACTIVE & SAFE – ¹³C is a stable, non-radioactive isotope, making it completely safe even for children and pregnant women.
HIGHER SPECIFICITY AND SENSITIVITY – Offers superior diagnostic performance in detecting H. pylori infections compared to conventional methods.
CLINICALLY ACCEPTED AND STANDARDIZED – Recognized by global guidelines (ACG, Maastricht Consensus, WGO) as a first-line diagnostic method and Test of Cure.
ROBUST AND REPRODUCIBLE – Less variability and fewer external interferences compared to colorimetric or outdated breath tests.
ADVANCED UREA FORMULATION – ¹³C Urea Granules is the latest technology of ¹³C Urea formulation that disintegrates into stomach within 3 minutes and detects H. pylori even in the non-localized area of GI tract.
Endorsed by Global Guidelines
“UBT shows superior performance over SAT and serology in both symptomatic and asymptomatic populations.” — Leal et al., BMJ Open Gastroenterology, 2020
