  1. Gram negative curved rods 2) Microaerophiles 3) Campylobacter jejuni = diarrhea 4) Resides in GI tract of poultry, & causes diarrheal disease in humans. 5) Helicobacter pylori = gastric / duodenal ulcers 6) Inhabits the stomach & survives due to its production of the enzyme urease. 7) Urease - breaks down urea to produce ammonia, which neutralizes stomach acid in the immediate environment.
