Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Detection of mutations in one or a couple of genes may not provide enough data or cover all the genomic DNA variance related to antibiotic resistance of Helicobacter pylori to clarithromycin (CLA) and levofloxacin (LVX). We aimed to perform whole genome sequencing to explore novel antibiotic resistance-related genes to increase predictive accuracy for future targeted sequencing tests. METHODS: Gastric...
