CulturingChlamydophila pneumoniae [PDF]

Journal of Chemotherapy, 2002
Chlamydophila pneumoniae (formerly Chlamydia pneumoniae) is an intracellular pathogen responsible for respiratory tract infection. A recent British survey of the microbial aetiology of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) indicated that C. pneumonia is responsible for 13% of CAP and is the second highest bacterial cause of CAP 1.

ELISA test to detect Chlamydophila pneumoniae IgG [PDF]

Journal of Basic Microbiology, 2002
A new ELISA test (Chlamydophila pneumoniae IgG, Vircell, Spain) to detect Chlamydophila pneumoniae IgG was evaluated. The micro-immunofluorescence (MIF) test was used as reference method. Chlamydia trachomatis and Chlamydophila psittaci elementary bodies were also assayed.

Infections Caused by Chlamydophila pneumoniae [PDF]

Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine, 2014
High affinity to the epithelial lining of the airways makes Chlamydophila pneumoniae a common etiological agent of respiratory tract infections (RTI). It causes among others: pharyngitis, tracheitis, sinusitis, otitis media, bronchitis and bronchiolitis, and pneumonia. It is estimated that Chlamydophila pneumoniae infection is responsible for about 20%
