Polymerase Chain Reaction For The Detection Of Ocular Chlamydial Infection In Trachoma-Endemic Communities
1 Sept 1994
Abstract excerpt
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with primers derived from the sequence of the cryptic chlamydial plasmid was evaluated for the detection of ocular chlamydial infection in trachoma-endemic populations and was used to explore further the relationship between ocular chlamydial infection and clinical signs of trachoma. It was more sensitive than other laboratory techniques, especially for mild cases of trachoma, in...
