PCR Detection and Molecular Identification of Chlamydiaceae Species [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 2001
ABSTRACT Recent taxonomic developments, based on 16s and 23s rRNA gene sequences, have divided the family Chlamydiaceae into two genera and nine species, of which five have been found to infect humans. Few simple methods are available to detect and identify all species sensitively and specifically. In this
