ABSTRACT: In recent works Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) become a significant criteria and essential diagnostic tool for studying the etiology of gastro-intestinal tract disorders (GITDs), for this purpose a total of stool samples were collected from 266 patients from both gender ,they were aging from below one year to over than 70 years. Their compliance with epi-gastric pain, diarrhea weigh loose and other disorders. Types of GITDS were detected and classified by the gastro-enterologists in two main Hospitals and from patients attending Private clinics and medical labs in Kirkuk city. H. pylori was detected form stool samples by using rapid lateral immune-chromatography assay (RLICA). GITDs involve, H. pylori positive distributed in 132 (49.62%), followed by 74 (27.81 % ), 59(22.18 %), 7(2.63 %), 3(1.12%) and 2(0.75 %) for irritable bowel diseases, inflammatory bowel diseases, peptic ulcer, ulcerative colitis and duodenal ulcers diseases respectively. Whereas 171, (64.28%) were positive for parasitic infection, P<0.05 .Moreover other 48, (18.04 %) stool samples were non-identified it's about from the described diseases. A total of132 (49.62 %) of H. pylori positive samples were distributed in 46(38.84 %) samples for IBD versus to 41(31.81 %) for IBS and 33(25%) were positive for parasitic infections, p <0.05. According to age; highest rate 10 (55.55 %) of H. pylori was recorded among patients aging from 61 to 70 years, whom they have IBD. Whereas 7 (70 %) have IBS within age group from 41 to 50 years, P <0.05. It can be that H. pylori participate with high rate in GITDs patients particularly IBD elderly patients.

Preservation of probiotics by lyophilization is considered a method of choice for developing stable products. However, both direct consumption and reconstitution of dehydrated probiotic preparations before application “compromise” the survival and functional characteristics of the microorganisms under the stress of the upper gastro-intestinal tract. We evaluated the impact of different food additives on the viability, mucin adhesion, and zeta potential of a freeze-dried putative probiotic, Lactiplantibacillus (Lp.) plantarum HAC03. HAC03-compatible ingredients for the formulation of ten rehydration mixtures could be selected. Elevated efficacy was achieved by the B-active formulation, a mixture of non-protein nitrogen compounds, sugars, and salts. The survival of Lp. plantarum HAC03 increased by 36.36% compared rehydration with distilled water (4.92%) after passing simulated gastro-intestinal stress conditions. Cell viability determined by plate counting was confirmed by flow cytometry. B-active formulation also influenced Lp. plantarum HAC03 functionality by increasing its adherence to a Caco-2 cell-line and by changing the bacterial surface charge, measured as zeta potential.Hydrophobicity, mucin adhesion and immunomodulatory properties of Lp. plantarum HAC03 were not affected by the B-active formulation. The rehydration medium also effectively protected Lp. plantarum ATCC14917, Lp. plantarum 299v, Latilactobacillus sakei (Lt.) HAC11, Lacticaseibacillus (Lc.) paracasei 532, Enterococcus faecium 200, and Lc. rhamnosus BFE5263.

Organs and content of the gastro-intestinal tract (GIT) of marine mammals are relevant for a variety of investigations and provide data to researchers from different fields. Currently used protocols applied to the GIT for specific analysis limit the possibility to execute other investigations and important information could be lost. To ensure a proper sample collection and a multidisciplinary investigation of the GIT of marine mammals, a new multi-sieves tool and a specific protocol have been developed. This new device and approach allowed the simultaneous sampling of the GIT and its content for the main investigations concerned. The samples collected during these preliminary trials were suitable to perform all the different research procedures considered in this work. The obtained results show that with a few and easy procedural adjustments, a multidisciplinary sampling and evaluation of the GIT of marine mammals is possible. This will reduce the risk of losing important data aimed at understanding the cause of death of the animal, but also biology and ecology of marine mammals, and other important data for their conservation and habitats management.
