Abstract excerpt
A nested PCR for genus-specific amplification of the Chlamydia omp1 locus was established. This PCR detected single template molecules in 200-microl specimen aliquots. Amplified chlamydial omp1 alleles were typed by heminested species PCRs and allele PCRs. We applied this method to 407 specimens from several host animals with various clinical conditions, and we detected prevalences of chlamydiae from 6 to 50%....
