Serum samples for antichlamydial antibodies was also studied from 126 women; 12 of women were culture positive on both occasions. Chlamydia was isolated from 24% of women aged 20-24 years, compared to only 9% of women 25-30 years. Antibody were detected to the genital serotypes (D-K) in 31 (25%) of 126 women who were tested. 70% of women who were culture positive had antibody titer greater than or equal to 1:64 compared to 7% of women who were culture negative.en_US
