[Sensitivity and specificity of the Chlamydiazyme test in comparison with tissue culture in the light of our studies].
The Chlamydiazyme Test was used in the laboratory examination of 1139 patients (716 women, 368 men, 55 children) hospitalized in the departments of urology, nephrology and gynaecology. Urethral and cervical smears were examined. In comparison with the culture method for C. trachomatis on McCoy cells the Chlamydiazyme test had a 91.6% agreement of the positive and negative results. The disagreeing results, that is only Chlamydiazyme test positive or only culture positive, accounted respectively for 2.1% and 6.2% of the results. The sensitivity of the Chlamydiazyme test was 74.6% and its specificity was 97.2%.
