An ultrastructural study of the gastric campylobacter-like organism 'Campylobacter pyloridis'.
Microaerophilic spiral organisms may be isolated frequently from samples of gastric mucus taken from patients undergoing gastroscopy. The ultrastructure of these gastric campylobacter-like organisms ('Campylobacter pyloridis') shows that they have greater affinities with Spirillum than with Campylobacter.
