Filtrationsmethode zur Isolierung von Chlamydien aus mikrobiell-kontminiertem Probenmaterial

Chlamydial infection are frequently responsible for abortion in ruminants. Chlamydia can be isolated using a cell culture technique. In some cases contamination with bacteria and fungi which are resistant to antibiotics used in the media causes a problem in the isolation. A cell culture method which uses a filtration step to separate out microbial contaminants is described
