Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is identifiable in hematoxylin-eosin (HE)-stained preparations, particularly under a prolonged hematoxylin staining condition. The staining intensity of H. pylori bodies was increased when the hematoxylin staining period was doubled from 5 min, the routine period of Meyer's hematoxylin staining, to 10 min. The staining intensity of the background epithelial nuclei was only mildly increased. Hematoxylin-eosin staining employing a prolonged hematoxylin staining period gave detectability of H. pylori comparable to May-Giemsa and immunoperoxidase staining. The modified HE method is thus very useful and practical for identifying H. pylori in routine gastric biopsy specimens.
幽门螺杆菌(H. pylori)可在苏木精-伊红(HE)染色的标本中识别出来,尤其是在延长苏木精染色条件下。当苏木精染色时间从迈耶苏木精常规染色时间5分钟加倍至10分钟时,幽门螺杆菌菌体的染色强度增加。背景上皮细胞核的染色强度仅略有增加。采用延长苏木精染色时间的苏木精-伊红染色法对幽门螺杆菌的检测能力与梅-吉姆萨染色法和免疫过氧化物酶染色法相当。因此,改良的HE方法对于在常规胃活检标本中鉴定幽门螺杆菌非常有用且实用。
