Abstract

The purpose of this study is to identify Helicobacter species with 2 different morphology (Helicobacter-like organisms and Gastrospirillum- like organisms) in gastric imprint of pig stomach. A total of 120 gastric specimens, (60 from intensive and 60 from extensive pig production) were analyzed. The presence of Helicobacter species was detected in 9 of total
60 (15%) pigs from intensive production and 6.67% (4/60) belong to
„Helicobacter pylori morphotype”, while 8.33% (5/60) belong to
„Gastrospirillum-morphotype”. Helicobacter species in pigs from extensive production was found in 14 of total 60 (23.33%). „Helicobacter- pylori morphotype” were present in 5 of total 60 samples (8.33%), while bacteria with spiral appearance (Gastrospirillum-morphotype) were identified in 9 of total 60 samples (15%). Also, semi-quantitative evaluation of bacterial density was performed. The gastric imprint is useful, fast, simple and inexpensive method, widely used for confirmation of presence of Helicobacter species.
