helicobacter salomonis sp. nov., a canine gastric helicobacter sp. related to helicobacter felis and helicobacter bizzozeronii. | during a study of the prevalence and distribution of gastric helicobacters in domestic pets, a novel group of helicobacter-like organisms were identified. these "helicobacter group 2" strains were initially distinguished from the species helicobacter felis and helicobacter bizzozeronii by their cellular morphology and the type of motility exhibited. bacterial cells were only slightly spiral, 5 to 7 microns long, and 0.8 to 1.2 microns wide and showed an unusual slow wavelike motion. each cell ha ... | 1997 | 9336895 |
evaluation of a group-specific 16s ribosomal dna-based pcr for detection of helicobacter bizzozeronii, helicobacter felis, and helicobacter salomonis in fresh and paraffin-embedded gastric biopsy specimens. | a new specific and sensitive 16s ribosomal dna-based pcr assay was developed. the assay targets a 78-bp dna fragment unique to helicobacter bizzozeronii, helicobacter felis, and helicobacter salomonis and can be used with freshly frozen and formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded gastric biopsy specimens. | 2001 | 11230459 |
isolation and characterization of helicobacter suis sp. nov. from pig stomachs. | a new cultivation method was successfully applied for the in vitro isolation of a hitherto uncultured spiral helicobacter species associated with ulceration of the non-glandular stomach and gastritis in pigs and formerly described as 'candidatus helicobacter suis'. three isolates, hs1(t), hs2 and hs3, were subcultured from the stomach mucosa of three pigs after slaughter and were analysed using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. the novel isolates grew on biphasic culture plates or very moist agar ... | 2008 | 18523177 |
