NEW PROBIOTICS USEFUL FOR ERADICATING HELICOBACTER PYLORI INFECTION

摘要

New probiotic clones have been obtained having enhanced activity against Helicobacter pylori infection. The new clones are derived from selected strains of Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium animalis lactis sp. They are advantageously non-susceptible to antibiotics currently used in the treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection, which makes them ideal for co-treatment with said antibiotics in the eradication of Helicobacter pylori infection. Synergistic effects of combinations among the present probiotics and their strong adjuvant effect on the activity of antibiotics on Helicobacter pylori are herein reported.
