    Abstract:
    A total of 87 cervical specimens of unselected female sex workers in massage parlors were tested by an enzyme amplified immunoassay IDEIA Chlamydia test and cell culture for the presence of Chlamydia trachomatis. The prevalence of C. trachomatis was 28 (32%) cases and 34 (39%) cases by the cell culture and the IDEIA Chlamydia test respectively. The IDEIA Chlamydia test demonstrated the sensitivity and specificity of 85.7% and 83% respectively, positive and negative predictive values of 70.5% and 92.4% respectively.
