متن کاملImmuno-gold Labelling of Chlamydia trachomatis
Background Chlamydia trachomatis is considered as an important cause of preventable sexually transmitted diseases worldwide. It is known to be of an obligate intracellular nature and enters its target cells via an endocytic process. As major outer membrane protein (MOMP) is one of the main candidates for the attachment and entry of chlamydia to the host cells we have tried to label the epitopes...
متن کاملThe genetic basis of plasmid tropism between Chlamydia trachomatis and Chlamydia muridarum
The development of genetic transformation technology for Chlamydia trachomatis using its endogenous plasmid has recently been described. Chlamydia muridarum cannot be transformed by the C. trachomatis plasmid, indicating a barrier between chlamydial species. To determine which regions of the plasmid conferred the species specificity, we used the novel approach of transforming wild-type C. murid...
متن کاملChlamydia trachomatis.
The frequency of positive serological tests for Chlamydia trachomatis, the most common sexually transmitted pathogen in the United States, was assessed in 18,622 specimens derived from New Jersey clinics. From the results, 13 percent female patients and 17 percent male patients were reactive for chlamydial antigen.
متن کامل[Chlamydia trachomatis].
The sensitivity and specificity of a newly developed ligase chain reaction (LCR) test kit were examined by the use of highly purified elementary bodies (EBs) and in situ inclusions containing reticulate bodies only. The performance of the LCR kit was compared with a commercially available polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test kit, AMPLICOR Chlamydia trachomatis. The number of EBs and inclusions ...
