Abstract

Serum samples were collected from 60 patients with upper respiratory tract infection as well as 45 apparently normal healthy individuals. They were examined for the presence of complement fixing chlamy dial antibodies.
The antibodies could be detected in 5 (8.33%) of acute cases, 2 (3.33%) of subacute and 6 (10%), of chronic cases. Only one out of 45 healthy individuals reacted with the test. A good correl ation between disease of respiratory tract and C.F. chlamydial antibodies was demonstrated. The possible role of chlamydia as an aetiological agent of respiratory diseases in man is discussed.
