摘要
Helicobacter pylori is a gram-negative spiral-shaped organism associated with gastrointestinal disease in humans. H. pylori has a worldwide prevalence with approximately 50% of the world's population infected. Before the first isolation in 1982, it was assumed that the human stomach was a sterile environment because of the high levels of acid, which would exclude it as an ecological niche for any organism. H. pylori rarely has been cultured from feces, blood, and saliva. H. pylori also has been found in nonhuman primates and cats, but, to date, there has been no successful demonstration of an environmental reservoir.
