ELISA tests

Background
Helicobacter pylori, a spiral gram negative bacterium, has the ability to colonize the mucous membrane of the gastric epithelium, leading to inflammation of the mucosa, and if untreated, to chronic superficial gastritis. This inflammation process has been linked to peptic ulceration and gastric cancer.

Principle of the Assay
The Helicobacter pylori IgG antibody test is a test based on an enzyme immunoassay (ELISA) utilising a horseradish peroxidase conjugated detection antibody. This new test replaces previous Biohit Helicobacter pylori IgG (Cat.No. 601 040), and has significantly improved performance. You can find Kit Instructions here.
