The following study evaluated the association between Chlamydia Trachomatis (CT) and Neisseriae Gonorrhoeae (NG) using COBAS AMPLICOR CT/NG MOLECULAR SYSTEM technique in 35 women urine samples with a 23.9 year old average. 20 samples were positive to CT, showing a prevalence of 5.63%. Although, epidemiological studies have reported a relationship between Chlamydia Trachomatis infection and the ones caused by others microorganisms like Neisseriae Gonorrhoeae; this study didn’t find any association. Factors like kind of sample and the presence of inhibitors in urine, diminished sensibility to detect Neisseriae Gonorrhoeae.
