Primary clarithromycin resistance in Italy assessed on <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> DNA sequences by TaqMan real‐time polymerase chain reaction
16 Jan 2006
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Helicobacter pylori clarithromycin resistance is increasing worldwide and different mutations are involved in its mechanisms. Recently, molecular methods have been proposed to assess these mutations. AIM: To assess prevalence of primary clarithromycin resistance in two Italian areas, and the distribution of involved mutations, by using a novel method for real-time polymerase chain reaction. METHODS:...
