The pathogen was identified in a patient with severe pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) by sequence analysis of the ompA gene. Our findings raise the possibility that Chlamydiaceae other than Chlamydia trachomatis are involved in PID.

A monoclonal antibody against a carbohydrate epitope in lipopolysaccharide differentiates Chlamydophila psittaci from Chlamydophila pecorum, Chlamydophila pneumoniae, and Chlamydia trachomatis [PDF]
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Chlamydophila psittaci but not of Chlamydophila pneumoniae or Chlamydia trachomatis contains a tetrasaccharide of 3-deoxy-alpha-d-manno-oct-2-ulopyranosonic acid (Kdo) of the sequence Kdo(2-->8)[Kdo(2-->4)] Kdo(2-->4)Kdo. After immunization with the synthetic neoglycoconjugate antigen Kdo(2-->8)[Kdo(2-->4)]Kdo(2-->4) Kdo-BSA,
