| Organism Chlamydia abortus |
| Structure and strains Chlamydia abortus is a species in Chlamydiota that causes abortion and fetal death in mammals, including humans. Chlamydia abortus was renamed in 1999 as Chlamydophila psittaci along with all Chlamydiota except Chlamydia trachomatis. This was based on a lack of evident glycogen production and on resistance to the antibiotic sulfadiazine. In 1999 C. psittaci and C. abortus were recognized as distinct species based on differences of pathogenicity and DNA DNA hybridization. In 2015, this new name was reverted to Chlamydia |
| Disease Chlamydiae are gram-negative, obligatory intracellular bacteria. Characteristically, the chlamydial cell wall lacks a peptidoglycan layer. Only the species Chlamydia trachomatis, Chlamydia pneumoniae (Chlamydophila pneumoniae) and Chlamydia psittaci (also referred to as Chlamydophila psittaci) are relevant to human disease. Infections with Chlamydia can affect the mucous membranes in the eye, airways and genitals and may lead to serious damage. Chlamydia trachomatis infection is the most common sexually transmitted bacterial disease in Europe and may result in ectopic pregnancy, premature birth, sterility and arthritis. Untreated chlamydioses are the primary cause of blindness in developing countries. Around 5 to 15% of all cases of pneumonia contracted outside of hospitals are due to infection with Chlamydia pneumoniae transmitted through the air by droplets from person to person. Older people and those with weakened immune systems are particularly susceptible. Chlamydia psittaci is the causative agent of ornithosis (Psittacosis) which occurs worldwide. The natural reservoirs are birds. Transmission occurs by inhalation of aerosols or dust containing the organism. Following an incubation time of around six to 20 days ornithosis manifests as atypical bronchopneumonia with flu-like symptoms, but other organs may also be afflicted. Diagnosis |
| Detection and diagnosis Approximately two weeks after the first symptoms of a primary infection an increase of the IgA and IgM antibody activity occurs, which peaks after five weeks and usually declines by the 10th week. The IgG antibody activity reaches a maximum around week twelve and remains detectable for several years. In cases of reinfection IgA and IgG antibodies reappear rapidly. |
