Direct detection and analysis of vacA genotypes and cagA gene of Helicobacter pylori from gastric biopsies by a novel multiplex polymerase chain reaction assay.

Abstract excerpt

Several tests/methods for the infection, detection, and genotyping of Helicobacter pylori have been developed in the past; all these differ in specificity and sensitivity and thereby could not be routinely used in clinical study especially in resource-poor developing countries. In the present study, a novel method based on multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay was developed to detect H. pylori in...
