摘要: This project primarily focused on the development of a novel, non-invasive peptide-based ELISA to diagnose C. trachomatis-related infertility in women. In this study, an silico approach was applied identify and design novel peptide antigens that are specific women with infertility. The serological assay developed such it could potentially replace invasive techniques for early investigation. thesis further investigated sero-prevalence chlamydial from low-resource, high prevalence setting. addition, also identified immune markers were associated
