Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of Helicobacter pylori detection, and specifically relates to a method for preparing carbon isotope labeled urea by taking divalent carbonate as a raw material. Background Art

[0002] The carbon-14 breath test is a safe and simple method to detect Helicobacter pylori infection and determine whether the Helicobacter pylori elimination treatment is successful. Helicobacter pylori produces highly active urease. When taking urea labeled with carbon-14, if Helicobacter pylori is present in the stomach, the urease produced by Helicobacter pylori will decompose the urea into carbon-14 labeled carbon dioxide and ammonia. The carbon-14 labeled carbon dioxide is then exhaled through the blood. By analyzing the content of carbon-14 labeled carbon dioxide in the exhaled breath, it can be determined whether the patient is infected with Helicobacter pylori.

[0003] The existing method for synthesizing carbon-14 labeled urea mainly uses carbon-14 labeled barium carbonate or carbon-14 labeled potassium cyanide as the starting material. The reaction of carbon-14 labeled barium carbonate with barium amide or ammonia at high temperature is not only dangerous, but also the raw materials are both in solid phase, and the reaction contact is not sufficient, resulting in low reaction yield. Carbon-14 labeled potassium cyanide is more expensive than carbon-14 labeled barium carbonate, and is also highly toxic, has higher requirements for operation, and has a great impact on personal safety and the environment.

[0004] Therefore, a simple and non-toxic method for synthesizing carbon isotope-labeled urea is urgently needed. Summary of the invention
