Chlamydia Ag Test Kits

Chlamydia is a Gram-negative bacterium that is a specialized intracellular parasitic microorganism. Unlike other bacteria, it cannot survive on its own and needs to be inside a host cell in order to reproduce. Among pets, cats are the most commonly infected with chlamydia, especially young, unvaccinated cats. Cats infected with chlamydia may show signs of conjunctivitis, such as red, watery eyes, swollen eyelids and increased discharge. If left untreated, chlamydia infection can lead to serious eye disease and even blindness. In addition to eye symptoms, chlamydia infection in pets can cause respiratory tract infections, reproductive tract infections and arthritis. Chlamydia infection between pets is mainly spread through direct contact, such as sharing food bowls, towels or licking each other's fur. In addition, chlamydia infection in pets may also be transmitted to humans, especially those with weakened immunity.
