Suppression of Chlamydia trachomatis inclusion formation by fetal calf serum in cycloheximide-treated McCoy cells.

R T Evans
PMCID: PMC273417  PMID: 6989860

Abstract

A batch of fetal calf serum was encountered which suppressed the number of Chlamydia trachomatis inclusions seen when it was used in conjunction with cycloheximide-treated McCoy cells. The batch of serum did not affect the number of inclusions detected in irradiated or untreated McCoy cells.
