[Demonstration of urogenital Chlamydia infection by means of the Chlamydiazyme test]. 1989

F V Kristiansen, and J Grønlund, and P Kaspersen, and E From, and K B Hansen, and B R Møller

Abbott's recently introduced Chlamydiazyme test which is based on the Elisa principal and cell culture technique was employed with the object of demonstrating urogenital infection with Chlamydia trachomatis in 150 persons. Neither of the methods were optimal. The Chlamydiazyme test had a lower sensitivity and specificity than the cell culture method.

D002690 Chlamydia Infections Infections with bacteria of the genus CHLAMYDIA. Infections, Chlamydia,Chlamydia Infection,Infection, Chlamydia
D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.
