Helicobacter pylori is regarded as a causative factor for chronic B-gastritis, drug-unrelated ulcus duodeni, and as a etiologic stimulus of gastric MALT-lymphoma. Further, it is suspected of being involved in the pathogenesis of stomach carcinoma. The epidemiology of infection by Helicobacter pylori has been characterized in western industrial nations by a linear increase by age and in developing countries by a large portion of children and juveniles being affected. The currently used methods for the diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori are very sensitive and highly specific, but all include either invasive sampling or require special technical devices. We have developed an ELISA for the detection of Helicobacter pylori from faecal samples. This cost-efficient methodology provides a reliable result without the loss of sensitivity or specificity and does not require invasive sampling.
