摘要: To investigate to what extent wild passerine birds are carriers of Chlamydia psittaci, 312 faecal samples from 18 bird species were collected. Using the PCR technique and subsequent DNA sequencing, C. psittaci was demonstrated in 9 (2.9%) 6 different species. Sera 65 bird-ringers, highly exposed birds, tested by microimmunofluorescence assay for occurrence IgG IgM antibodies psittaci. No such found. This results indicate that a significant proportion but rarely infectious humans.
