Helicobacter pylori (HP) in 41 patients (10 with stomach ulcer and 31 with duodenum ulcer) was found in gastro-biopsies from the stomach antrum before and after the treatment. The following methods to reveal HP were used: Giemsa staining, immunoperoxidase reaction with polyclonal monospecific antibodies against HP, urease rapid test. HP was also revealed in the blood serum by antibodies against HP by means of enzyme immunoassay. Electron microscopy was performed in 5 patients and bacteriologic study in 10 patients. Immunohistochemical method allows one to judge about real HP colonization of the gastric mucosa. Bacterioscopy with Giemsa staining gives good results but they are not true markers of HP presence this being explained by other methods. Serologic enzyme immunoassay gives an idea about the patient contamination, but not about HP eliminations as a result of treatment. Urease-test is adjuvant.
