Chlamydia Trachomatis HSP70 (549-660 a.a.) Recombinant
Chlamydia is a common term for infection with any bacterium belonging to the phylum Chlamydiae. This term derives from the name of the bacterial genus Chlamydiain the family Chlamydiaceae, order Chlamydiales, class and phylum Chlamydiae. There are two genera in Chlamydiaceae: Chlamydia and Chlamydophila. The genus Chlamydia includes three species: C. trachomatis, C. muridarum, and C. suis.
The E. coli derived recombinant protein contains Chlamydia TrachomatisHSP70 protein epitopes, 549-660 amino acids.
Applications
Chlamydia HSP70 protein is suitable for use in ELISA. Each laboratory should determine an optimum working titer for use in its particular application. Other applications have not been tested but use in such assays should not necessarily be excluded.
