The monoclonal stool antigen test is considered as the most sensitive and specific examination for initial detection of H. pylori with high rates of sensitivity and specificity. The usage of proton pump inhibitors (PPI), clarithromycin and metronidazole (PCM) is recommended for the eradication of H...
Stool antigen testsdetect proteins (antigens) related toH. pyloriin your poop. They're the most common tests used to find the bacteria. Stool PCR tests(polymerase chain reaction tests) look forH. pyloriin your poop. They also look for mutations that can make the bacteria antibiotic-resistant....
stool antigen test urea breath test serologic assay (blood test) The aim of treatment is to eradicate theH.pyloriinfection and allow for the stomach lining to heal to a sufficient extent where the structural integrity can be restored and the natural defenses can prevent a re-infection of the ...
pylori culture 64% 100% Stool antigen test 86-97% (depending on antigen tested) 93-97% Higher sensitivity (true positive rate) demonstrates that the test is better at detecting H. pylori in the true presence of H. pylori. Lower specificity (true negative rate) indicates that the test may...

pylori is a test in which the presence of the bacterium can be diagnosed from a sample of stool. The test uses an antibody to H. pylori to determine if H. pylori antigen is present in the stool. If it is, it means that H. pylori are infecting the stomach. Like the urea breath ...
based on a combination of anti-human–Ig dye conjugate and purifiedH. pyloriproteins. When the diluted stool specimen flows through absorbent immuno-chromatographic devices, the anti-human–Ig–IgG complex binds to theH. pyloriproteins (Ags) fixed in the absorbent device to produce a colored ...

PPI-group was treated with 1-gm amoxicillin, 500-mg clarithromycin and 20-mg Lansoprazole 12 hourly daily for 4 weeks. After four weeks of therapy, stool antigen test for H Pylori was performed to confirm H Pylori eradication. Patient with negative stool antigen test for H Pylori was labeled...
