Helicobacter Pylori IgA ELISA Kit
Full Name: Helicobacter Pylori IgA ELISA Kit
Reactivity: Human
Sample Type: Plasma, Serum
Sensitivity: 1.0 U/ml
BACKGROUND
Helicobacter pylori which is most often shortened to H. pylori is a gram negative microaerophilic bacterium that can be found living in the sticky mucus that lines the stomach. They are spiral/helix-shaped bacteria that are often classified as curved rod, about 0.5μm in diameter and 3μm in length. H. pylori bacteria are unique by the fact they produce the enzyme urease themselves which allows it to live in the harsh environment of the stomach.
The infections caused by H. pylori are mostly harmless, however, they can be responsible for a large number of ulcers that are found in the stomach or the small intestines. H. pylori is considered contagious and can be passed from person to person by saliva, fecal contamination and through poor hygiene practices.
INTENDED USE
Human helicobacter pylori IgA ELISA kit is a procedure for in-vitro analysis of human IgA antibodies to helicobacter pylori (helicobacter pylori-IgA) using plasma or serum. This assay has a minimum analytical sensitivity limit of 1.0 U/ml.
