Genotyping markers used for multi locus VNTR analysis with ompA (MLVA-ompA) and multi sequence typing retain stability in Chlamydia trachomatis

We aimed to evaluate the stability of the Chlamydia trachomatis MLVA-ompA and MST typing systems through multiple passages in tissue culture. Firstly, we analysed the stability of these markers through adaptation of C.trachomatis to tissue culture and secondly we examined the stability of a four-loc...
