Isolation of chlamydia in irradiated and non-irradiated McCoy cells

Isolation of chlamydia in irradiated and non-irradiated McCoy cells

L Johnson et al. J Clin Pathol. 1975 Dec.

Abstract

Specimens from eye and genital tract were cultured in parallel in irradiated and non-irradiated McCoy cells and the frequency of isolation of chlamydia using these culture methods was compared. There was a significant difference between the frequencies of isolation; irradiated McCoy cells produced a greater number of positive results.
