| Core Tip |
Nowadays, isolation of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) from gastric tissues by using classical culture is accepted as the gold standard, according to Maastricht criteria. Additionally, surveillance of increased or decreased minimal inhibitory concentration values of antimicrobial substances, according to applied treatment policy and geographical regions, may only be possible with the cultivation of bacteria. On the other hand, the diagnostic sensitivity of classical culture is low due to problems in standardization of the medium in order to provide microaerophylic conditions. In this study, for the first time, we report the high diagnostic sensitivity of the microcapillary culture method for diagnosis of H. pylori. |
