Clinical Use
Order TestUse
This test distinguishes between antibodies to various Chlamydia species, enabling differentiation between Lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV) serovars (L1) and other Chlamydia infections (D–K), as well as Chlamydophila pneumoniae and C. psittaci. It supports diagnosis of LGV versus other chlamydial etiologies by assessing IgG, IgA, and IgM classes for each organism.
