Evaluation of (14C)aminopyrine clearance for determination of gastric mucosal blood flow.
This study has demonstrated high correlation between the radiometric and spectrophotometric determinations of gastric mucosal aminopyrine clearance. The radiometric method is technically easier, allows a larger number of samples to be determined and is safer to the subject. The clearance of small amounts of [14C]aminopyrine was unaffected by large doses of unlabeled aminopyrine showing that mucosal extraction is not concentration limited. Small amounts of [14C]aminopyrine may provide an excellent tool for examining the role of mucosal blood flow in the pathogenesis of gastric disease in man.
