I was very stupid about machines, so I was to be greatly occupied with them; I had no memory for classification, so it was particularly necessary that I should study systematic zoology and botany; I was hungry for human deeds and humane motions, so I was to be plentifully crammed with the mechanical powers, the
elementary bodies, and the phenomena of electricity and magnetism.
pneumoniae in HL cells and
elementary bodies (EB) purified by Renografin gradient centrifugation as previously described [7].
The Gram stain and Giemsa stain didn't reveal any features of chancroid and LGV (inclusion or
elementary bodies of Chlamydia) respectively.
The reticulate bodies then convert back to
elementary bodies, and are released back into the lung after causing the death of the host ce11.
He is aware that Aristotle repeatedly characterizes the
elementary bodies as "natural bodies." For this reason A.
Infectious
elementary bodies start the cycle by attaching to host cell membranes and gain access into the host cell via endocytosis.
For example, Chlamydia trachomatis can exist in both extracellular (
elementary bodies) and intracellular forms (reticulate bodies), with
elementary bodies sometimes aggregating together (1, 2).
In a population-based case-control study of 117 ovarian cancer patients and 171 matched controls, the probability of having ovarian cancer was 90% higher in patients with the highest levels of chlamydia
elementary bodies, compared with patients with the lowest levels.
The subjects were evaluated for IgG antibodies to serovar D of chlamydia
elementary bodies and to chiamydia heat shock protein (CHSP) 60-1, CHSP60-S, CHSP6O-3, and CHSP-10.
pneumoniae is not well described, efficacy during different stages of the life cycle (e.g., infectious
elementary bodies, replicative reticulate bodies) is unclear (8,87), and antibody titers do not reliably track infection (87).
To resolve discrepant results, enzyme immunoassay specimen dilution buffer was examined for C trachomatis
elementary bodies by direct immunofluorescent antibody technique.
Elementary bodies are incapable of cell division, but are infectious.
