Clinical Evaluation of a Novel Stool Antigen Test Using Bioluminescent Enzyme Immunoassay for Detecting Helicobacter pylori.

ABSTRACT:

Background

BLEIA ™ "EIKEN" Helicobacter pylori antigen (B[EIA]) is based on the bioluminescent enzyme immunoassay (BLEIA) method that was newly developed with high sensitivity in detecting Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) antigen in feces.

Methods

In the project for H. pylori screening and treatment in Saga Prefecture in 2019, 141 students received the stool H. pylori antigen test as a secondary test. For 141 students, a comparative test was conducted between B (EIA) and extracorporeal diagnostic agents that were marketed in Japan as of 2019. The detection performance of H. pylori ATCC43504 standard strain and H. pylori antigen in commercial human fecal specimens were conducted.

Results

The comparison of B (EIA) with Qui
