Molecular biology methods for the characterization of Helicobacter pylori infections and their diagnosis.

Abstract excerpt

Helicobacter pylori infects approximately half of the human population; however, the outcome of infection is affected by many factors, including strain and host genotype characteristics and bacterial density within the stomach. Many molecular methods have been developed to provide information with respect to these characteristics. Methods that provide results within 24 h of endoscopy may be used to develop...
