Abstract:
Objectives: To investigate the status of chlamydia pneumonia infection in blood donors from Nanjing Command of PLA. Methods: Use the technique of nested polymerase chain reaction to detect the DNA of chlamydia pneumonia in peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Results: 32 of 100 blood donors were positive (32%). Conclusions: Our study reveals that the infection rate of chlamydia pneumonia in blood donors from Nanjing Command of PLA is considerable high and the clinical values need further research.
