ABSTRACT:
A process for determining qualitatively or quantitatively the presence of Chlamydia Trachomatis or Chlamydia trachomatis derived material in a subject material which process comprises deriving a sample from said subject material Chlamydia trachomatis derived material, contacting said sample with an antibody for a Chlamydia trachomatis derived material bound to a substrate thereby to bind at least a portion of the Chlamydia trachomatis derived material, contacting the bound Chlamydia trachomatis derived material with a conjugate between a substance which will bind selectively to the Chlamydia trachomatis derived material and a catalyst for a reaction system thereby to bind said conjugate to said bound Chlamydia trachomatis derived material, carrying out the reaction system catalysed by said catalyst and determining a product of said reaction system, characterised in that the sample is derived from the subject material by a process including heating the subject material to an elevated temperature and for a period of time such as to enhance the determination.
