- Chlamydia trachomatis is a non-motile, 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.
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.
Chlamydia trachomatis (MPP014) is a heat inactivated saline lysate preparation of Chlamydia trachomatis. This preparation is useful for applications that require low concentrations of contaminating protein.

Product Form
Inactivated Chlamydia trachomatis, LGV type II strain 434, saline lysate - frozen
-
Reconstitution
-
Preparation
Optimally infected cells are washed and disrupted into a small volume of phosphate buffered saline, subjected to 3 freeze/thaw cycles and centrifuged to remove cellular debris.
The preparation is inactivated by heat treatment and 0.05% Triton X-100. Inactivation is verified by two blind passages on permissive cells showing no inclusion bodies.
