The accuracy of the Surecell Chlamydia Test Kit (Kodak Clinical Products, Rochester, N.Y.) in detecting neonatal conjunctival infection caused by Chlamydia trachomatis was determined by comparison of this enzyme immunoassay with the isolation of C. trachomatis in tissue culture. Kodak Surecell is a rapid monoclonal antibody-based membrane capture enzyme immunoassay which can be processed in the office of a physician. The sensitivity and specificity compared to culture in detecting C. trachomatis in conjunctival specimens from infants with conjunctivitis were 93 and 96%, respectively. The test does not require specialized equipment or trained personnel and would be ideal for physicians who see low numbers of infants with possible chlamydial conjunctivitis in their offices.
通过将Surecell衣原体检测试剂盒（柯达临床产品公司，纽约州罗切斯特）与沙眼衣原体在组织培养中的分离情况进行比较，确定了该试剂盒检测新生儿沙眼衣原体所致结膜感染的准确性。柯达Surecell是一种基于单克隆抗体的快速膜捕获酶免疫测定法，可在医生办公室进行检测。在检测结膜炎婴儿结膜标本中的沙眼衣原体时，与培养法相比，其敏感性和特异性分别为93%和96%。该检测不需要专门设备或经过培训的人员，对于在办公室中诊治少量可能患有衣原体性结膜炎婴儿的医生来说是理想之选。
