Chlamydophila abortus Pelvic Inflammatory Disease
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2003 We report the first documented case of an extragestational infection with Chlamydophila abortus in humans. The pathogen was identified in a patient with severe pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) by sequence analysis of the ompA gene.

Identification of nine species of the Chlamydiaceae using PCR-RFLP [PDF]
International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 1999 The family Chlamydiaceae contains two genera and nine species. Rapid and easy identification of these species is essential for taxonomic, epidemiological and clinical determinations. Currently, DNA sequence analysis is the only accepted method that decisively distinguishes all nine species.
