Abstract
The distribution of different immunotypes of Chlamydia trachomatis in Finland was studied in the micro‐immunofluorescence test by typing 51 isolates with immune sera produced in mice and by testing human sera from 397 individuals with various clinical diagnoses, mostly sexually‐transmitted diseases. The immunotypes of the isolates as well the antibodies found were, in decreasing prevalence, BED, GF, CJ, K, H, and I.Keywords
