Abstract
A comparison of titers was made between an egg assay and a direct fluorescent antibody assay of three chlamydial strains propagated in Vero cells with and without cortisone plus cytochalasin B. The titer of NJ-1 strain was similar in the egg titration and the fluorescent antibody assay in the untreated sample and a little lower for the sample treated with cytochalasin B and cortisone. The SCT and CDC strains had approximately the same titers in the egg titration and the fluorescent antibody assay for samples with and without the antimetabolites.
