Nucleic acid amplification tests are increasingly used to detect ocular chlamydia infection in trachoma research and programs. To evaluate the reliability of Chlamydia trachomatis detection by the Abbott RealTime CT/NG assay (Abbott Molecular, Inc., Des Plaines, IL) on the m2000 platform, three conjunctival samples were collected from each of 200 children aged 0-9 years in Ethiopia: two from the right eye and one from the left eye. Four aliquots were processed for each child: two from the first right eye sample, one from the second right eye sample, and one from the left eye sample. Sixty-nine swabs were processed in a U.S. laboratory and 131 in an Ethiopian laboratory. Intra-class correlation coefficients (ICCs) were high when comparing two aliquots from the same swab (ICC ranged from 0.96 to 0.99), two separate swabs from the right eye (0.89-0.91), and one right and one left eye swab (0.87-0.89), indicating reliable chlamydial load assessment across different samples and laboratory settings.
