The use of immunological method for identification of helicobacter pylori in culture
Journal Title: Polish Journal of Applied Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
The aim of the study was to establish whether the immune method detecting Helicobacter pylori antigens can be used for the identification of H. pylori from a culture. Bacteria were cultured from endoscopic specimens of gastric mucosa from 378 patients. A positive result of H. pylori culture was obtained in 166 patients (43.9%), while the presence of H. pylori antigens was obtained in 164 (98.8%). The classical method for H. pylori identification from a culture is characterized by high accuracy. Therefore, a positive result of the test for the presence of H. pylori antigens from the culture could only be additional evidence confirming the culture results in selected cases.
