Hi, Ammar I recommend homigening the gastric tissue
under sterile conditions in 200 μL of saline solution 0.89% using a homogenizer (Kimble-Kontes, Vinelan, NJ, United States). The homogenized was placed on Columbia agar plates (Oxoid, Basingstoke, Hampshire, England) with defibrinated sheep blood at 7% plus selective supplement for H. pylori (Dent) containing Vancomycin (10 mg/L), Sodium cefsulodin (5 mg/L), Trimethoprim lactate (5 mg/L), and Anphotericin B (5 mg/L) (Oxoid, Basingstoke, Hampshire, England). The agar plates were incubated under microaerophilic conditions (6% O2, 6% CO2, 88% N2, using CampyPak Plus envelope, BBL, Nashville, TN, United States) at 37 ℃ from
four to eight days until observing small gray translucent colonies. Good luck.
