To diagnose an active infection with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). Helicobacter Pylori H. Pylori is a spiral-shaped bacterium and attacks the lining of the stomach. Due to its spiral shape, it penetrates into the stomach and gets protected by the mucus. Hence, immune cells are not able to reach them. This bacterium causes serious stomach problems like peptic ulcer, gastritis and most of the stomach ulcers. Antigens are the foreign substances that induce the immune responses to produce antibodies in the human body.
