L'ordre des Chlamydiales rassemble des bactéries parasites intracellulaires obligatoires caractérisées par l'existence d’un cycle de développement au sein des cellules eucaryotes. [...] Pendant longtemps, l'ordre des Chlamydiales a été constitué d’une seule famille(la famille des Chlamydiaceae) et d’un seul genre(le genre Chlamydia).

Nucleic acid amplification tests are the most complex and sensitive of the nucleic acid testing technologies. They use enzymes to amplify the target nucleic acid and most are theoretically capable of detecting in a sample a single nucleic acid molecule. Most of the nucleic acid amplification tests use nucleic acid probes to identify the resulting amplified material. 3, record 13, English, - nucleic%20acid%20amplification%20test

Nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) are the most sensitive tests for the screening and diagnosis of genital chlamydial infections ... That NAATs can be used with noninvasively collected specimens, such as first-catch urine samples (FCU) from men or women and self- or clinician-collected vaginal swabs, improves our ability to screen for chlamydia. 4, record 13, English, - nucleic%20acid%20amplification%20test

Infection of the lower genital tract with Chlamydia trachomatis is one of the commonest sexually transmitted diseases. It is common clinical practice following treatment to repeat microbiological tests to ensure chlamydiae have been eradicated.
