چکیده

Five preparations used as analgesics or lubricants in surgical, obstetrical, gynecological, and investigative procedures were tested for their effect on the isolation of Chlamydia trachomatis. Three lignocaine preparations and a lubricating jelly containing 2% phenol were inhibitory to chlamydiae. In contrast, K-Y lubricating jelly was relatively nontoxic to chlamydiae. Since K-Y jelly also had only slight toxic activity against gonococci, it is recommended for the lubrication of instruments which need to be used for the efficient isolation of these microorganisms.
