  • Title: Chlamydia trachomatis antibody detection in home-collected blood samples for use in epidemiological studies.
    Author: Hoenderboom BM, van Ess EF, van den Broek IVF, van Loo IHM, Hoebe CJPA, Ouburg S, Morré SA.
    Journal: J Microbiol Methods; 2018 Jan; 144():164-167. PubMed ID: 29196272.
    Abstract:
    Capillary blood collected in serum tubes was subjected to centrifugation delay while stored at room temperature. Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) IgG concentrations in aliquoted serum of these blood samples remained stable for seven days after collection. CT IgG concentrations can reliably be measured in mailed blood samples in epidemiological studies.
