| experimental transmission of chlamydia psittaci to turkeys from wild birds. | wild birds were inoculated with chlamydia psittaci to determine species that could be potential hosts and vectors in transmitting the agent to domestic turkeys. infection occurred in turkeys exposed to starlings (sturnus vulgaris), common grackles (quiscalus quiscula), brown-headed cowbirds (molothrus ater), and inca doves (cardafella inca). mourning doves (zenaidura macroura) shed the agent sparingly, but turkeys exposed to them did not become infected, these findings and knowledge of the habit ... | 1979 | 546413 |
| the aetiology of a keratoconjunctivitis occurring in goats in the sudan. | an infectious keratoconjunctivitis occurring in goats in the sudan is described. experimental transmission using infective ocular discharges resulted in a conjunctivitis in young kids and a severe keratoconjunctivitis in an adult goat. a pleomorphic organism which resembled rickettsia spp was found in conjunctival smears from naturally and experimentally infected animals. neither mycoplasma nor chlamydia spp were isolated in microbiological cultures. | 1979 | 552726 |
| field studies on enzootic abortion of ewes in south east scotland. | statistical data were collected from 20 sheep flocks in which enzootic abortion of ewes (eae) was diagnosed by examination of fetal material and maternal blood samples. the abortion rate in the 10,645 ewes in these flocks was 7.6 per cent. thirteen of the flocks were fully vaccinated against eae but the abortion rate in these was still in the order of 6.5 per cent. eae was the major cause of the problem as ascertained from the laboratory examination of samples from a wide range of cases of abort ... | 1979 | 552732 |
| [the replication cycle of chlamydia trachomatis and chlamydia psittaci: ultrastructural analysis]. | an ultrastructural comparative analysis is reported on the replication cycle of six strains of chlamydia trachomatis, recently isolated, and chlamydia psittaci strain 6bc, grown in cell cultures. important morphological distinctions of the bacterial walls are documented. in chlamydia trachomatis the cell wall seems more rigid. this causes, during the morphogenesis of the elementary body, its separation from the cell membrane with formation of an electron transparent space, which is not demonstra ... | 1979 | 553521 |
| [antibodies against chlamydia trachomatis in patients with non-gonococcal urethritis and in the healthy italian population]. | the authors report the results of a study on the prevalence of serum antibodies against chlamydia trachomatis among patients with non-gonococcal urethritis caused by chlamydia trachomatis and diagnosed on the basis of the isolation of the microorganism in cell cultures, among patients with non-gonococcal urethritis of unknown etiology and in groups of healthy population, in italy. the search for antibodies was performed both with complement-fixation tests in micro-titer system, using an antigen ... | 1979 | 553522 |

| sucrose density differences of chlamydia psittaci 6bc in relation to its host. | previous studies on chlamydia psittaci 6bc propagated in different hosts have shown differences in cytotoxicity but no differences in the ultrastructure of the individual particles. it is shown here that the 6bc strain derived from yolk sac of infected chick embryo sedimented in sucrose gradients at lower densities than the 6bc strain derived from l-cells. host-related modifications of lipid concentrations of the 6bc strains have been previously documented by others. it is thought that the pheno ... | 1977 | 559537 |
| chlamydia trachomatis in cell culture. ii. susceptibility of seven established mammalian cell types in vitro. adaptation of trachoma organisms to mccoy and bhk-21 cells. | trachoma organisms of serotype b were grown serially in irradiated cells (mccoy, bhk-21, microbiological associates, and bhk-21, lister) and tested for infectivity in monolayers of five mammalian cell lines (bhk-21, cho, hela s3, mccoy and owmk) and two diploid strains (st/btl and wi-38). all cell types had low susceptibility to chlamydial infection but the number of inclusions increased when the inoculum was centrifuged onto the monolayers, or when the cells were irradiated. infection was highe ... | 1977 | 559642 |
| cultivation of chlamydia trachomatis in cycloheximide-treated mccoy cells. | an isolation technique for chlamydia trachomatis using mccoy cells is described. in contrast to earlier techniques employing such cells, no pretreatment of the cells was used. the glutarimide antibiotic cycloheximide was added to the culture medium used for incubating the cells after infection. cycloheximide was used at concentrations that depressed, but did not completely inhibit, the metabolism of the eucaryotic host cells. in studies on different immunotypes of c. trachomatis cultured in the ... | 1977 | 562356 |

| growth of chlamydia psittaci in macrophages. | survival and growth of l-cell-cultivated chlamydia psittaci occurred in mouse macrophages in vitro. two major factors governing the intracellular fate of chlamydiae in macrophages are: (i) the multiplicity of infection (moi), i.e., the elementary body (eb)-to-macrophage ratio, and (ii) the state of the eb. at a low moi (1:1) survival and growth of live, untreated chlamydiae were optimal. the chlamydiae were internalized in macrophages within 30 to 40 min. eb proceeded to differentiate into retic ... | 1978 | 565338 |
| interaction of chlamydia psittaci with mouse peritoneal macrophages. | l-cell-grown chlamydia psittaci elementary bodies (eb) were rapidly phagocytized by mouse peritoneal macrophages in vitro. however, the intracellular fate of chlamydiae in macrophages appeared to be dependent on the multiplicity of infection (moi), i.e., the eb-to-macrophage ratio, and the treatment of the eb. at an moi of 1:1 or less, survival is maximal, and growth and multiplication of live, untreated chlamydiae did occur. in contrast, at a high moi (100:1), survival of chlamydiae is reduced, ... | 1978 | 565339 |
| cultures of chlamydia trachomatis in mouse peritoneal macrophages: factors affecting organism growth. | growth of chlamydia trachomatis b/tw-5/ot and l(2)/434/bu strains in cultures of thioglycolate-activated mouse peritoneal macrophages was studied. both strains grew to a limited extent in the macrophages, but lymphogranuloma venereum (lgv) grew better than trachoma. growth was enhanced by centrifugation of the inoculum onto the macrophage cell layer and inhibited by pretreatment of macrophages for 2 h with 100 mug of concanavalin a per ml. no significant effect was observed by pretreatment of ma ... | 1978 | 566729 |

| herd distribution of seropositive reagents to chlamydia in danish cattle. | 19% of 733 cows and heifers in 25 danish milking herds had cf antibodies against chlamydia. the number of seropositive reagents in the individual herds varied from 0-45%. in one herd especially studied, the majority of reagents were among calves, while the number of reagents was reduced with increasing age, which indicated a coherence with enzootic pneumonia in calves. apart from this and few cases of sporadic abortions, seropositive reactions could not be connected with any known chlamydial syn ... | 1977 | 593809 |
| chlamydial, gonococcal, and herpes virus infections in neonates. | the incidence, type of lesions, portal of entry and treatment of chlamydial, gonococcal, and herpetic infections of neonates are briefly discussed. herpes neonatorum is potentially the most serious of these conditions and major efforts in its prophylaxis are called for. | 1977 | 593977 |
| maternal genital chlamydial infection as a cause of neonatal conjunctivitis. | infections of the cervix with chlamydia trachomatis are common, at least in those groups of sexually active women of child-bearing age who are seen in std (sexually-transmitted diseases) clinics. persistent untreated infection presents a hazard to the women themselves during pregnancy and to their infants who may develop chlamydial conjunctivitis. the clinical and laboratory findings in 1009 women and in 103 infants with conjunctivitis are presented. practical problems of diagnosis and control o ... | 1977 | 593978 |
| chlamydial pharyngitis? | among 118 women who were sexual contacts of men with nongonococcal urethritis, the practice of fellatio correlated with symptoms of a sore throat. oropharyngeal cultures for chlamydia trachomatis were negative in all women, including 11 women who practiced fellatio and whose partners were known to have nongonococcal urethritis due to c. trachomatis. the study does not support a major role for c. trachomatis as a cause of sore throat in women who practice fellatio. | 1977 | 594858 |

| chlamydia trachomatis as a cause of acute "idiopathic" epididymitis. | to assess the etiologic role of c. trachomatis and other micro-organisms in "idiopathic" epididymitis, 23 men underwent microbiologic studies, including cultures of epididymal aspirates in 16. eleven of 13 men under the age of 35 years had c. trachomatis infection whereas eight of 10 over 35 had coliform urinary-tract infection. cultures of epididymal aspirates yielded c. trachomatis alone in five of six men under 35, and coliform bacteria alone in five of 10 over 35. these results suggest that ... | 1978 | 622087 |
| psittacosis outbreak in employees of a turkey-processing plant. | in june 1976, 28 employees of a nebraska poultry processing plant had clinical onset of an illness compatible with psittacosis. the diagnosis was serologically confirmed in 22 patients by fourfold or greater changes in their complement fixation antibody titers, using a chlamydia group antigen. lack of serologic response in the remaining patients could not be readily explained by therapy differences, timing of serologic evaluation, or severity of clinical illness. the comparable attack rates in t ... | 1978 | 623096 |
| division of single host cells after infection with chlamydiae. | mouse fibroblasts (l cells) were infected in suspension with chlamydia psittaci (6bc) and then plated out on a solid substrate at a density of 80 cells per cm2 so that the effect of chlamydial infection on the division of single host cells and their progeny could be determined. uninfected l cells multiplied with a mean generation time of 15 h. the generation time of single l cells infected with 1.5 50% infectious units (id50) of c. psittaci was over twice as long. half of the infected l cells ha ... | 1978 | 624590 |
| chlamydia trachomatis infant pneumonitis: comparison with matched controls and other infant pneumonitis. | we determined the prevalence of chlamydia trachomatis infection in 30 consecutive hospitalized infants less than six months of age with pneumonitis and in 28 matched controls (nine of 30 vs. one of 28. p less than 0.05). in comparing 16 cases of pneumonitis due to c. trachomatis with 27 not due to that agent, we found several distinguishing clinical and laboratory features: c. trachomatis was highly correlated with radiographic hyperinflation, prolonged cough and congestion, greater than or equa ... | 1978 | 628397 |
| [doxycycline hyclate in the treatment of non-gonococcal urethritis]. | 91 men with non-gonococcal urethritis (including urethritis due to chlamydia trachomatis and non-specific urethritis) were treated by a 14-day course of doxycycline hyclate; 75% were considered cured at follow-up on the 10th day and 3-4 months post-treatment. the results show a bettter cure rate (83%) in urethritis due to chlamydia trachomatis than in non-specific urethritis (64%). a 5-day course of doxycycline hyclate was disappointing and was followed by a very high recurrence rate in both gro ... | 1978 | 628825 |
| role of chlamydia trachomatis and hla-b27 in sexually acquired reactive arthritis. | inflammatory arthritis, tendinitis, and fasciitis after non-specific urethritis ("sexually acquired reactive arthritis" (sara)) was studied prospectively in 531 men with non-specific urethritis, with particular reference to the frequency of isolation of chlamydia trachomatis and the presence of hla-b27. satisfactory cultures were obtained from the urethral swabs from 384 patients; and hla typing was performed on 482, of whom 30 (6%) were hla-b27-positive. arthritis developed in 16 patients, and ... | 1978 | 630254 |
| chlamydia psittaci infection of horses with respiratory disease. | two strains of chlamydia psittaci were isolated from the nasal tract of horses with acute respiratory disease. these 2 isolates (ns 121 and ns 172) were characterized as chlamydia on the basis of their morphology, tinctorial property, growth in chicken embryos, inability to grow on bacterial media and their possession of chlamydial common complement fixing group antigen. they were identified as c. psittaci on the basis of resistance to sodium sulphadiazine. the present strains were not pathogeni ... | 1978 | 631105 |
| kinetics of phagocytosis of chlamydia psittaci by mouse fibroblasts (l cells): separation of the attachment and ingestion stages. | the kinetics of phagocytosis of chlamydia psittaci (6bc) by monolayers of mouse fibroblasts (l cells) was studied with an assay that distinguished between the attachment and ingestion phases of phagocytosis. at multiplicities of 10 and 100 50% infectious doses (id50) per l cell, virtually all of the inoculated c. psittaci had been attached and ingested after 60 min at 37 degrees c. at multiplicities of 500 to 5,000 id50 per l cell, the initial rates of attachment and ingestion of c. psittaci to ... | 1978 | 631892 |
| childhood trachoma in a nonendemic area. danish trachoma patients and their close contacts, 1963 to 1973. | during ten years of study of chlamydia trachomatis eye infections, trachoma was diagnosed in 14 danish patients with onset during childhood. clinical findings in the eye were characteristic of classical trachoma. the infecting c trachomatis immunotype was identified in all but one case. at the time of diagnosis, seven patients were still children (6 to 10 years of age), three were teenagers, and four were adults. in five young girls the disease was extremely severe. delay in proper diagnosis and ... | 1978 | 633586 |

| chlamydia trachomatis as possible cause of peritonitis and perihepatitis in young women. | of 11 young women with acute peritonitis proved by laparoscopy, seven of whom also had perihepatitis, nine had serological evidence of recent infection with chlamydia trachomatis; in five of these nine patients high antibody titres to chlamydiae were found without laboratory evidence of gonococcal infection, while the other four had evidence of simultaneous gonococcal infection. c trachomatis may play an important part in peritoneal inflammation previously attributed only to gonococci. | 1978 | 638581 |
| chlamydial infection of the urethra in men. | chlamydia trachomatis was isolated from the uretha of 125 (52%) of 238 men with non-gonococcal urethritis (ngu). repeat isolation attempts in 155 of these patients were successful in eight men in whom results had been negative on the initial visit, but they were unsuccessful in eight men who initially had had positive cultures. we must assume that with our present isolation techniques we are missing, at any single visit, at least 9% of chlamydial infections. c. trachomatis was also found in 32 ( ... | 1978 | 638714 |
| the antimicrobial susceptibility of chlamydia trachomatis in cell culture. | the action of 22 antimicrobial agents against the sa2f strain of chlamydia trachomatis has been studied by the use of a simple cell culture technique. tests for bactericidal activity were undertaken with some of the agents, and latency of infection was demonstrated. the susceptibilities of 10 clinical strains of c. trachomatis and of sa2f to oxytetracyline, erythromycin, and spectinomycin in cell culture were found to be identical. | 1978 | 638716 |
| immunity to vaginal reinfection in female guinea pigs infected sexually with chlamydia of guinea pig inclusion conjunctivitis. | guinea pig boars were inoculated intraurethrally with the chlamydial agent of guinea pig inclusion conjunctivitis (gpic). at the heights of their urethral infections, they were caged with sows in estrus. whereas some of the sows had not been previously exposed to gpic agent, others had received an intravaginal inoculation 5 to 8 weeks earlier. those sows for which infected boars provided the first exposure were challenged by intravaginal inoculation 5 to 8 weeks later. vaginal and conjunctival s ... | 1978 | 640729 |
| loss of inorganic ions from host cells infected with chlamydia psittaci. | mouse fibroblasts (l cells) infected with the 6bc strain of chlamydia psittaci released potassium ion (k(+)) into the extracellular milieu in a way that depended on size of inoculum and time after infection. when the multiplicity of infection was 500 to 1,000 50% infectious units (id(50)) per l cell, loss of intracellular k(+) was first apparent 4 to 10 h after infection and was nearly complete at 6 to 20 h. magnesium ion and inorganic phosphate (p(i)) were also released. similar multiplicities ... | 1978 | 640730 |
| the microbial flora of the urogenital tract in women with symptoms of recurrent urinary tract infection. the non-influence of methenaminehippurate treatment on the idigenous flora. | recurrent urinary tract infections are known to occur among 5 per cent of all females. these women frequently have episodes of symptoms of lower urinary tract infection even between periods of bacteriuria. in the present study, 25 women with a history of recurrent urinary tract infections, found to lack signs of obstructive uropathy, were subjected to an extensive urological and microbiological survey. the investigation showed that (i) "pyuria" was common (9/12) but usually of urethral origin, ( ... | 1978 | 640797 |

| isolation of chlamydia psittaci from a patient with interstitial keratitis and uveitis associated with otological and cardiovascular lesions. | a case history of a 15-year-old schoolgirl with fluctuating bilateral uveitis, bilateral stromal keratitis with vascularisation, and bilateral deafness associated with tinnitus and balance disturbance is described. three years from the onset of her clinical signs she died of a sudden cardiac arrest caused by endocarditis associated with valvular and arterial lesions. chlamydia psittaci was isolated from her conjunctiva. in her blood type-specific antichlamydial antibody at a level of 1/64 agains ... | 1978 | 708673 |

| role of chlamydia trachomatis in non-acute prostatitis. | the possible role of chlamydia trachomatis in non-acute prostatitis was investigated by cultural and serological techniques in a study of 53 adult males. c. trachomatis was isolated from the urethra of only one of the 53 patients and from none of the 28 specimens of prostatic fluid from the same patients. by means of a modified microimmunofluorescent test, serum chlamydial igg antibodies at a titre of 1/64 or greater, or igm antibodies at a titre of 1/8 or greater, or both were detected in six o ... | 1978 | 709348 |
| effect of cortisol on the growth of chlamydia trachomatis in mccoy cells. | the number of intracytoplasmic inclusions of chlamydia trachomatis produced in mccoy cell monolayer cultures infected with a constant inoculum of a recently isolated genital strain was compared in cultures of untreated replicating cells and in monolayers which had been incubated in the presence of cortisol at initial extracellular concentrations between 0.0001 and 100 microgram/ml. the effect of adding cortisol was dependent on its concentration, on the time of addition to the tissue culture med ... | 1978 | 711342 |
| prediction of efficacy of antimicrobial agents in treatment of infections due to chlamydia trachomatis. | although chlamydia trachomatis is readily eradicated by systemic therapy in patients with acute urethritis, systemic therapy is less satisfactory in treatment of chronic trachoma. the activities of antimicrobial agents against c. trachomatis in cell cultures when the antimicrobial agents are added 1 hr after the c. trachomatis (minimal inhibitory concentration [mic]) predicts efficacy of the drugs in the treatment of urethritis but does not necessarily predict efficacy in the treatment of chroni ... | 1978 | 712119 |
| chlamydia psittaci infection in danish cattle. | intestinal tract infection by chlamydia psittaci was demonstrated in one cattle herd by isolation from faecal specimens, using embryonated eggs. such infections were observed in all animals younger than 12 months, in 60% of the heifers and in none of the adult cows. the presence of infection correlated (r=0.511) with the serum titre of compliment fixation antibodies against chlamydial antigen. young calves, which were spontaneously infected with chlamydia postnatally, developed ileitis and moder ... | 1978 | 716920 |
