Summary Introduction
To fill:
The elementary body, endocytosis, vesicle, host cell, inclusion body, reticulate body in stages and structure of chlamydia life cycle and also indicate how many hours have typically transpired since infection.
Introduction:
Chlamydia belongs to Gram negative, non spore forming bacteria. They are small obligate parasitic bacteria that live inside the endosome of host cell. Thus, both Rickettsia and Chlamydia are the smallest cellular microbes.
