Abstract
A standardized 15N tracer method is described for the assessment of the nitrogen and protein metabolism in healthy and pathological changed organism. The method represents an isotope technical procedure for the application in the clinical research and practice. The single parts of this routine method are: --the clinical preparation of the patient/proband by means of a standardized nutritional regime, --the tracer administration (single dose) and the sampling (urine, blood), --the 15N-tracer technique (sample chemistry, emissions-spectrometric isotope analysis), --the mathematical evaluation of 15N tracer data.
