Epidemiology of Chlamydophila caviae-like Chlamydia Isolated from Urethra and Uterine Cervix [PDF]

, 2010
In 2000, chlamydial strains OK133 and OK135 were isolated from 2 female patients with cervicitis. These strains were unresponsive to commercially available PCR and LCR test kits for the diagnosis of Chlamydia trachomatis infection, and their phenotypic ...

A 25-year retrospective study of Chlamydia psittaci in association with equine reproductive loss in Australia

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2020
Introduction Chlamydia psittaci is primarily a pathogen of birds but can also cause disease in other species. Equine reproductive loss caused by C. psittaci has recently been identified in Australia where cases of human disease were also reported in ...

Effect of Preventive Chlamydia abortus Vaccination in Offspring Development in Sheep Challenged Experimentally [PDF]

, 2016
Ovine enzootic abortion, caused by Chlamydia abortus, leads to important economic losses worldwide. In addition to reproductive failures, infection may impact lamb growth during the first weeks after birth, yet this effect has not been well characterized.

A case of severe psittacosis pneumonia complicated by splenic infarction

BMC Infectious Diseases
Clinical data Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia is a community-acquired pneumonia caused by Chlamydia psittaci. While severe cases may lead to critical conditions such as respiratory failure, splenic infarction is relatively uncommon.

Comparative Genome Analysis of 33 Chlamydia Strains Reveals Characteristic Features of Chlamydia Psittaci and Closely Related Species

Pathogens, 2020
To identify genome-based features characteristic of the avian and human pathogen Chlamydia (C.) psittaci and related chlamydiae, we analyzed whole-genome sequences of 33 strains belonging to 12 species. Using a novel genome analysis tool termed Roary ILP

Chlamydia psittaci: a relevant cause of community-acquired pneumonia in two Dutch hospitals. [PDF]

, 2016
Of all hospitalised community-acquired pneumonias (CAPs) only a few are known to be caused by Chlamydia psittaci. Most likely the reported incidence, ranging from of 0% to 2.1%, is an underestimation of the real incidence, since detection of psittacosis ...

PCR detection and differentiation of Chlamydia pneumoniae, Chlamydia psittaci and Chlamydia trachomatis

Molecular and Cellular Probes, 1992
A PCR-based system was developed for the detection and differentiation of Chlamydia trachomatis, Chlamydia psittaci and Chlamydia pneumoniae. A conserved 145 bp fragment of the chlamydial omp1 gene was amplified from all three species. The three species were then differentiated from each other by digestion of this PCR product with restriction enzymes ...

Simultaneous Qualitative And Quantitative Identification Of Multiple Targets By Polymerase Chain Reaction On Microarray [PDF]

Chapter 12 at "Oligonucleotide Array Sequence Analysis", Nova Publishers, ISBN: 978-1-60456-542-3, 2008
An approach for multiplex qualitative and quantitative microarray-based PCR analysis has been proposed. The characteristics of PCR executed on a gel-based oligonucleotide microarray with immobilized forward primers and a single common reverse primer in solution were investigated for several DNA targets.
