Abstract
Ninety-one biochemical tests were done on each of 50 strains of Campylobacter pylori isolated from the gastric mucosa of patients with gastritis and peptic ulcers in Singapore. The API ZYM system distinguished three biotypes of C. pylori. The organism was found to be biochemically different from C. jejuni and C. coli. We propose a biochemical identification kit that would be of use in identifying and differentiating biotypes of C. pylori, and would distinguish them from C. jejuni and C. coli.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
