The LiveSure^TM Chlamydia Rapid Test is a two-site sandwich assay designed to selectively identify Chlamydia trachomatis antigen in endocervical or endourethral swab specimens.  Chlamydia trachomatis is one of the most common sexually transmitted pathogens.  It is a major cause of cervicitis, urethritis, endometritis and pelvic inflammatory disease in women.  Serious complications can result in salpingitis, infertility and ectopic pregnancy.  If transmitted to infants during birth, chalmydia can cause conjunctivitis and pneumonia.  The The LiveSure^TM Chlamydia Rapid Test is a simple and rapid test which can detect Chlamydia trachomatis antigen directly from swabs allowing physicians to administer therapy immediately.
