Helicobacter apodemus sp. nov., a new Helicobacter species identified from the gastrointestinal tract of striped field mice in Korea

A novel Helicobacter species was identified from the gastrointestinal tract of the Korean striped field mouse (Apodemus agrarius). Biochemical testing, ultrastructure characterization, and 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis suggested that this bacterium represents a distinct taxon. The bacterium was positive for urease activity, susceptible to cephalothin and nalidixic acid, and weakly positive fo...

Simultaneous Detection of Helicobacter Genus and Helicobacter pylori Species using a Multiplex PCR Method

In order to improve simultaneous detection and identification of Helicobacter genus in general and Helicobacter pylori specifically and reduce the number of amplifications needed, we established a multiplex PCR. In this study, two pairs of primers: Hcom1 and Hcom2 specific for Helicobacter genus, Hicd1 and Hicd2 specific for Helicobacter pylori species were used. To determine the sensitivity of...
