    Abstract:
    The management of the ongoing lymphogranuloma venereum epidemic in industrialized Western countries caused by Chlamydia trachomatis variant L2b still needs improvements in diagnosis, therapy and prevention. We therefore developed the first rapid C. trachomatis variant L2b-specific polymerase chain reaction to circumvent laborious ompA gene sequencing.
