Lactose Malabsorption in Irritable Bowel Syndrome in the tropics. Diagnostic protocol and symptoms development following lactose ingestion

      Аннотация: This book is a part of PhD Thesis work entitled "Lactose malabsorption in irritable bowel syndrome in the tropics: evaluation of diagnostic protocol, study of LPH & SERT genes potentially influencing development of symptoms following lactose ingestion". We have evaluated the different techniques of diagnosis of lactose intolerance like Lactose Tolerance Test, Lactose Hydrogen Breath Test, Lactase genotyping for hypolactsia. We have also studied the role serotonin transporter (SERT) gene in symptom development following different doses of lactose.
