Chlamydia trachomatis Antigens

Chlamydia is a common sexually transmitted disease with serious potential reproductive complications for both men and women. Infections are caused by Chlamydia trachomatis, an obligate intracellular parasite with a gram negative-like structure. Since Chlamydia infections are often asymptomatic, treatment with antibiotics can be delayed leading to problems such as pelvic inflammatory disease in women and sterility in men. Early detection and screening with diagnostic kits offers significant potential for limiting the spread of this disease and for reducing the risk of future reproductive complications.

AbD Serotec is pleased to offer three preparations of Chlamydia trachomatis antigens, MPP014, MPP015, and MPP016.

These antigens are suitable for use in an ELISA with our anti-chlamydia lipopolysaccharide (LPS) monoclonal antibodies. The performance-guaranteed antibodies listed below recognize genus-specific epitopes within chlamydia LPS and have a proven track record in diagnostic kits.
