Abstract excerpt
Current typing methods of Chlamydia (C.) trachomatis are mainly based on the diversity of the ompA gene, which is coding for the major outer membrane protein A. The present study aimed at facilitating genotyping of strains of this obligate intracellular human pathogen by developing a DNA microarray assay using the ArrayTube™ format for individual samples and the ArrayStrip™ format for higher throughput. The new...
