Applications Of The Immune-Histochemical Technique For Diagnosis Of Helicobacter Pylori From Gastric Biopsy Samples

PCR and RFLP Analysis for Identification and Typing of Helicobacter pylori Strains from Gastric Biopsy Specimens

Detection of Helicobacter pylori from Gastric Biopsy Samples by Culture, Polymerase Chain Reaction and Histopathological Methods in Eastern Turkey

The aims of this study were to detect Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) by culture, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and histopathological methods, to determine the prevalence of active H. pylori infection in Elazig Province, East of Turkey and to evaluate the relationship between H. pylori infection and sex. Antrum and corpus samples of 184 Turkish patients (85 male and 99 female, age range 17 to...

Compression of Histopathology, Culture and Rapid Urease Test in Diagnosis of Helicobacter Pylori in Gastric Biopsy Specimens

Abstract Background and Objective: Helicobacter pylori (H. Pylori) infection is related to chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, duodenal ulcer and gastric cancer. Thus, identification and treatment of the infection have a considerable importance. The aim of this study was to compare three methods of Histopathology, Culture and Rapid Urease test (RUT) in identification of H. Pylori in gastric bio...

PCR-based diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection and real-time determination of clarithromycin resistance directly from human gastric biopsy samples.

A novel PCR detection assay that amplifies the Helicobacter pylori-specific vacuolating cytotoxin gene (vacA) and thus enables rapid diagnosis of infection is described. Additionally, a real-time probe hybridization melting point analysis assay to detect all three mutations in the 23S rRNA gene associated with clarithromycin resistance was applied directly to antral gastric biopsy samples. Comp...

Comparison PCR Method and Rapid Urease Test to Detect Helicobacter Pylori in the Gastric Biopsy Tissue Samples

Background & Objective: Helicobacter pylori has been recognized as a major risk factor in gastric and duodenum ulcers and gastric cancer. Some laboratory tests, such as culture, are not entirely satisfying. The aim of this study is to compare RUT with PCR in identifying H. pylori in the gastric biopsy tissue samples.Materials & Methods: First, the standard H.pylori sample (N:oC30) was provided....
