Brief Summary: The objective is to evaluate the utility of a breath ammonia sensing device In this study we will assess the effect of H pylori infection on breath ammonia levels by measuring whether there is a change in the pattern or quantity of breath ammonia seen in H pylori positive patients compared to H pylori negative patients
Detailed Description: Healthy volunteers will undergo testing for H pylori infection using a 14-C urea breath test and the results will be compared to an experimental ammonia breath test The breath sample will be collected by an investigational device that the patient will be exposed to consisting of a plastic mouth-piece which is attached to a T-tubing section having a side-arm port through which a fiberoptic ammonia sensor is inserted inside the tube To meet the Phase II specific aim the scope of the clinical trials is expanded addressing the following specific objectives

Test refinements of the sensing system hardware software breath test device
Determine whether a urea dose-response effect exists following urea ingestion
Define the optimal cutoff values for expired breath ammonia to allow optimal discrimination of H pylori infected vs uninfected persons
Determine the appropriate time interval for breath ammonia testing following urea ingestion
Determine whether there is a change in breath ammonia level after H pylori treatment
