AmHPR™ H Pylori Antibiotic Resistance Panel

American Molecular Laboratories (AML) has developed an AmHPR™ H. pylori antibiotic resistance panel. The panel tests all major genes in the H. pylori genome for variants that are associated with antibiotics resistance. The H. pylori antibiotic resistance related genes as listed in the table below.

Antibiotic Resistance Related Genes
23S rRNA
gyrA
rdxA
pbp1
16S rRNA
rpoB

Antibiotics
Clarithromycin
Fluoroquinolones
Metronidazole
Amoxicillin
Tetracycline
Rifabutin

Clinical Significance
AmHPR™ H. pylori antibiotic resistance panel is a comprehensive assay. The panel examines antibiotic resistance to six types of antibiotics that are currently used in H. pylori treatment. The panel provides information that is directly relevant to the selection of antibiotics or regimens in the treatment of H. pylori.
