" 06/01/2007 - "The subjects, 24 patients with chronic pancreatitis and 16 healthy adult controls, underwent the Bz-Tyr-Ala breath test, in which breath samples were collected every 10 min up to 90 min after oral administration of an aqueous solution of 5-mg/kg Bz-Tyr-Ala (7 mM). " 06/01/2007 - "A simple breath test was developed for assessment of exocrine pancreatic function employing 13C-dipeptide [ie, benzoyl-L-tyrosyl-[1-(13)C]alanine (Bz-Tyr-Ala)], and this test was examined to determine whether it can be used to diagnose exocrine pancreatic insufficiency in patients with chronic pancreatitis.
