Comparison of selective and nonselective media for recovery of Campylobacter pylori from antral biopsies

Antral biopsy specimens from patients with acid peptic disease were cultured in parallel on Skirrow medium (SM) and sheep blood agar (SBA) for Campylobacter pylori. In institution 1, 23 of 88 (26.1%) endoscopies were positive on SBA compared with 37 of 88 (42.0%) on SM (P = 0.0001). In institution 2, 29 of 49 (59.2%) endoscopies were positive for C. pylori on SBA and 27 of 49 (55.1%) were positive on SM (P = 0.50). The addition of SM optimizes the recovery of C. pylori from antral biopsy specimens.
