In the winter months of the year 1977, 64 dams out of 170 ewes pregnant for the first time miscarried on one farm in the locality G., Roznava district. Antibodies were revealed in 97% dams after the examination of the blood of 170 ewes from the abortion-affected flock; ornithosis antigen was employed for the examination in the complement-fixing reaction. In the cytoplasm of placentary cells of two miscarrying ewes chlamydiae were proved microscopically. The chlamydiae-strains designated LH-5109 and PK-5082 were isolated by inoculating placentary suspensions to the yolk sacs of chicken embryos. Both strains correspond to all the criteria necessitating the identification of chlamydiae (Storz, 1971). As miscarrying ewes in the course of abortions eliminate, with abortions and amniotic fluids, great amounts of chlamydiae to their environment, they represent a powerful source of infection to healthy animals housed on the same premises and to tending staff. Chlamydiae-antibodies were proved, by the complement-fixing reaction, in the blood of seven attendants out of all the eleven-member tending staff.
1977年冬季，在G.地区（罗兹纳瓦区）的一个农场里，170只首次怀孕的母羊中有64只流产。在对受流产影响的羊群中170只母羊的血液进行检测后，发现97%的母羊体内有抗体；在补体结合反应检测中使用了鸟疫抗原。在两只流产母羊胎盘细胞的细胞质中，通过显微镜证实存在衣原体。通过将胎盘悬液接种到鸡胚卵黄囊中，分离出了命名为LH - 5109和PK - 5082的衣原体菌株。这两种菌株符合鉴定衣原体所需的所有标准（斯托兹，1971年）。流产过程中的母羊会随着流产胎儿和羊水向周围环境中排出大量衣原体，它们对同处一地的健康动物和饲养人员来说是强大的感染源。在全体11名饲养人员中，有7人的血液通过补体结合反应检测出衣原体抗体。
