Helicobacter pullorum is a bacterium in the Helicobacteraceae family, Campylobacterales order.[1] It was isolated from the liver, duodenum, and caecum of broiler and layer chickens, and from humans with gastroenteritis. It is a nongastric urease-negative Helicobacter species colonizing the lower bowel.
