Popis: The present study aimed to evaluate in vitro cross-strain inhibitory effects of IgY polyclonal antibody on both growth and urease enzyme of four local strains of H. pylori . Leghorn chickens were immunized with whole cells of four different strains of H. pylori , separately. Rising of specific IgY was detected by ELISA. The IgY purified using polyethylene glycol method and the purity was evaluated by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting. Each strain was treated with its own-specific and also other strain-specific IgYs. The strain-specific IgY could inhibit the growth of specific strains by 49–72% and also other different strains of H. pylori by 29–86%. Our findings revealed that strain-specific IgY could inhibit urease activity of its own by 64–72% and other different strains by 49–79%. These findings confirmed strain-specific and also cross-strain inhibitory effects of the IgY polyclonal antibody on both growth and urease activity of H. pylori.
