Investigation methods of diagnosis of Chlamydia trachomatis by Gap ligase chain reaction
Objective:To investigate the method with good sensitivity
specificity
reliability for diagnosis of Chlamydia trachomatis.Methods:Inoculate the nasopharyngeal swabs to detect the Chlamydia trachomatis(CT) with McCoy cell culture and plasmid gene probes labeled with biotin ligase-chain reaction.Then calculate the sensitivity
specificity
positive predicative value(PPV) and negative predicative value(NPV) of both TC and G-LCR respectively.Compare the difference of the two methods.Results:There were 49 positive specimens and 344 negative by enlarged gold standard.There was significant difference with cell culture
G-LCR-PAGE
G-LCR-ELISA by two-related-samples χ 2 tests( P <0.05).Conclusion:LCR assay is a kind of rapid and accurate method to diagnose Chlamydia trachomatis infection
