| Description | Chlamydia trachomatis is a nonmotile, Gram-negative human pathogen. It undergoes a unique biphasic developmental cycle, forming elementary bodies extracellularly and distinctive intracellular inclusions. The elementary body is infectious but metabolically inactive, cannot replicate and lacks detectable peptidoglycan. The major outer membrane protein (MOMP) comprises a large percentage of the outer membrane and is a transmembrane protein with type, species and genus reactive epitopes. The outer membrane also carries a heat stable lipopolysaccharide containing the reactive epitopes used for genus specific serological tests. There is structural similarity and antigenic cross-reactivity between chlamydial and other Gram-negative LPS moieties. Chlamydia trachomatis is a common sexually transmitted bacterium. Chlamydia infection may cause proctitis, urethritis, trachoma (an eye infection and the leading cause of blindness worldwide) and infertility in both sexes. Prostatitis and epididymitis may occur in men and in women infection might lead to acute or chronic pelvic pain, pelvic inflammatory disease, cervicitis and ectopic pregnancy. In neonates the pathogen may cause trachoma and pulmonary complications. Source: Inactivated Pathogen, Chlamydia trachomatis LGV type II strain 434 cultured in mouse L cells. Activity: This product has been rendered inactive by standard procedures. However this material should still be handled as infectious and should be disposed of appropriately. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 6 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. | ||
