Quantum dot - Helicobacter pylori test
A big step in the testing of Helicobacter Pylori with the determination of its pathogenicity.
In addition to the existing tests for the determination of antibodies in the blood and antigens in the stool, Analysis has introduced a new test for Helicobacter pylori, which represents the most reliable way of obtaining an accurate diagnosis. The test simultaneously detects three specific indicators of infection, proving the presence of antibodies to:
- Urease
- gene-linked cytotoxin A (CagA)
- vacuolating cytotoxin (VacA)
Symptoms
Symptoms of H.pylori infection are the following: heartburn, nausea, burping, bloating, pain in the upper abdomen, loss of appetite and weight loss
Why is it important to know if you are infected with Helicobacter Pylori bacteria?
Helicobacter pylori can cause many serious diseases:
- chronic gastritis — almost 25% of all chronic gastritis is caused by H. pylori
- stomach or duodenal ulcer — 4 to 10 times increased risk of developing ulcer disease
- stomach cancer — an almost eightfold increased risk of stomach cancer
The latest quantum dot technology
TRADITIONAL TEST | QUANTUM DOT TEST | |
|---|---|---|
Typing possibility | No | Yes |
Test preparation | Yes | No |
Accuracy | 80% | 98.5% |
Because of Quantum dot technology it is possible to:
- avoid discomfort of invasive testing
- avoid obtaining false positive or negative results
- it is possible to test children and pregnant women
- detect the most important factors of H.pylori adaptation: urease makes it easier for the bacteria to survive in acidic conditions, while CagA and VacA ensure higher pathogenicity of the bacteria and development of more severe forms of disease
- obtain information on H.pylori virulence, as all strains of H.pylori are not equally virulent
(pathogenic) - provide a rational use of eradication therapy
- monitor efficiently the success of eradication therapy
- further consider the health of intestinal flora as the human body takes as long as six months to bring its gut microbiome into balance after antibiotic therapy
