RESUMO
PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism electrophoretic patterns of amplified ureB and ureC of Helicobacter pylori were compared between spouses after digestion with restriction endonucleases. Twenty of 21 couples, both members of which were positive for H. pylori, showed ureB and ureC patterns that differed between spouses. We concluded that in Japan, interspousal transmission of H. pylori occurs rarely.
