Key Finding
While intravaginal inoculation of C. muridarum mimics the natural route of sexual transmission between individuals, transcervical inoculation allows the organisms to directly infect endometrial epithelial cells without interference from host responses triggered by chlamydial contact or infection of vaginal and cervical cells.
Countstar Connection
Cell suspensions underwent cell-count assessment with Countstar Altair within the documented study workflow for the reported research.
