Abstract excerpt
Genetic diversity of 32 Helicobacter pylori strains isolated from patients with gastritis, gastric or duodenal ulcer, carcinoma, or lymphoma was determined by repetitive sequence element polymerase chain reaction (REP-PCR), and by the new typing method restriction fragment end-labelling (RFEL). Furthermore, these two methods were used to investigate a possible correlation between clinical symptoms and the genetic...
