Abstract

The Quick Chaser H. pylori (QCP), which is a novel antigen detection kit for Helicobacter pylori , was developed recently. The previous examination kits targeted the catalase of H. pylori ; however, this new test kit, to the best of our knowledge, is the first kit to target the flagellar protein of H. pylori .
