[Demonstration of urogenital Chlamydia infection by means of the Chlamydiazyme test]

Abbott's recently introduced Chlamydiazyme test which is based on the Elisa principal and cell culture technique was employed with the object of demonstrating urogenital infection with Chlamydia trachomatis in 150 persons. Neither of the methods were optimal. The Chlamydiazyme test had a lower sensitivity and specificity than the cell culture method.
