title: Isoelectric focusing of ureases from Campylobacter pylori and related organisms.
abstract: Agarose gel isoelectric focusing was used to determine the isoelectric points of ureases from strains of gastric campylobacterlike organisms isolated from ferrets (pI 5.4), baboons (pI 5.7), and pigs (pI 5.9) and from isolates of Campylobacter pylori in humans (pI 5.9). This technique may help differentiate these closely related bacteria.
