Abstract A [13C]-breath test is a promising method for
measuring gastric emptying. The methodological relevance
is based on a close correspondence between gastric emp-
tying of [13C]-acetate/octanoate (input) and pulmonary
excretion of [13CO2] (output). Despite the close input-
output correspondence, the pulmonary output is quite
remote from the gastric input: the pulmonary output is
delayed compared to the gastric input, and the total
recovery of [13CO2] in the breath is incomplete. This
review focuses on the kinetics of [13C]-acetate/octanoate in
the body and suggests that (1) the delayed pulmonary
output results from temporal retention of [13CO2] in the
well-perfused tissues (heart, brain, etc.), (2) the incomplete
recovery results from incorporation of the label into met-
abolic products (ketone bodies, amino acids, etc.) or from
fixation of [13CO2] in the low-perfused tissues (bone,
skeletal muscle, etc.), and (3) knowledge on the retention is
the key to appropriate interpretations of breath test results.
Recognition of these kinetic aspects is essential for
appropriate interpretations of these breath test results.

Introduction
Gamma scintigraphy is regarded as the reference method
for measuring gastric emptying, but the technique has the
critical drawback of substantial irradiation [1]. As a non-
radioactive alternative, a breath test using a stable isotope
([13C]) is now widely used in research and clinical settings
[2, 3]. In the breath tests, the [13C] label incorporated in a
free fatty acid (acetic acid or octanoic acid) is used as a
tracer. Labeled acetate and octanoate are applied to
