Comparison of two commercially available isolation systems for Chlamydia trachomatis.
In a comparison of two commercially available chlamydial isolation systems in which cycloheximide-treated McCoy cell monolayers are used, the system from Bartels Immunodiagnostic Supplies, Inc., Bellevue, Wash., was found to be superior to that from M. A. Bioproducts, Walkersville, Md. for the detection of Chlamydia trachomatis by iodine staining. Of 288 clinical specimens run in parallel, 47 (...
متن کاملIndirect immunofluorescence staining of Chlamydia trachomatis inclusions in microculture plates with monoclonal antibodies.
Indirect immunofluorescence (IF) staining, using a monoclonal antibody, detected two- to fourfold more inclusions than did iodine staining. Of 274 clinical specimens, 53 (19.3%) were positive by IF on passage 1 as compared with 33 (12%) by iodine staining (P less than 0.005). IF-stained inclusions in McCoy cells in the bottom of microculture wells were readily viewed with a long-focal-length ob...
متن کاملEvaluation of a genus reactive monoclonal antibody in rapid identification of Chlamydia trachomatis by direct immunofluorescence.
This study compared the direct visualisation of elementary bodies in urogenital smears by the direct immunofluorescence test with the isolation of Chlamydia trachomatis in McCoy cell cultures treated with cytochalasin B. C trachomatis was isolated from 41 (16.4%) of 250 unselected specimens in McCoy cell cultures treated with cytochalasin B. Of the 41 culture positive specimens 37 (90%) were di...
متن کاملComparison of Six Commercially-available Dna Polymerases for Direct Pcr
The use of a "direct PCR" DNA polymerase enables PCR amplification without any prior DNA purification from blood samples due to the enzyme's resistance to inhibitors present in blood components. Such DNA polymerases are now commercially available. We compared the PCR performance of six direct PCR-type DNA polymerases (KOD FX, Mighty Amp, Hemo KlenTaq, Phusion Blood II, KAPA Blood, and BIOTAQ) i...

Background and Aim: Chlamydia trachomatis is an obligate intracellular parasite responsible for ocular and genital infections in human. Chlamydia trachomatis is the most common cause of chronic follicular conjunctivitis and is also responsible for 20% of acute conjunctivitis cases. As a rapid diagnosis is important in the reducing the long-term squeal of the diseases, the objective of this stud...
