Effect of storage temperature on survival of Chlamydia trachomatis after lyophilization.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Lyophilized preparations of Chlamydia trachomatis were made to investigate how well they would survive storage at four relevant incubation temperatures for 1 week and 1 month. Good viability was maintained by storage at either 4 degrees C or 20 degrees C for 1 week. If the ambient temperature is not too high, short-term transportation of C. trachomatis is achievable through lyophilization.

Survival of Chlamydia trachomatis in different transport media and at different temperatures: diagnostic implications.
We compared the survival of a laboratory strain of Chlamydia trachomatis serovar L-2 in different media and at different temperatures (room temperature, 4 degrees C, and -70 degrees C). At these temperatures the best storage medium was 2SP (0.2 mol/l sucrose in 0.02 mol/l phosphate buffer supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum). We used material obtained from patients to study the sensitivity o...
