Abstract
The present invention contemplates a method for detecting contempory infection by H. pylori in a mammal comprising contacting a mucous secretion from said mammal with an antigen component from H. pylori for a time and under conditions sufficient for an IgG antibody in said mucous secretion specific to said antigen component to form a complex therewith and then subjecting said complex to a detecting means. Preferably, the antigen component is immobilized onto a solid support.
