An endoscopy 10 days after inoculation revealed signs of gastritis and the presence of H. pylori. These results suggested H. pylori was the causative agent. Marshall ...

The current taxonomy of Helicobacter bacteria is somewhat complex and incomplete, with new species currently being considered as possibly belonging to this genus. [2] [6] [7] Within the Helicobacter genus, H. heilmannii s. l. is a group of Helicobacter species that are distinguished from H. pylori by being two- to three-fold larger in size (they are 4-10 micrometers in length and 0.5-0.8 ...
