Sensitivity of 5-6 day old chick embryos to some members of the chlamydia family

Abstract

The goal of the work was to improve the diagnosis of chlamydia in animals and birds. The article presents data on experimental infection of 5-6-day and 7-9-day chicken embryos with certain types of chlamydia to study their sensitivity. Having analyzed the results obtained, it was shown that 5-6-day-old chicken embryos are the most sensitive and chlamydia are cultured in them from the first passage in higher titers compared to cultivation in 7-9-day-old chicken embryos.
