Muramic acid is not detectable in Chlamydia psittaci or Chlamydia trachomatis by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.

Abstract

By using the powerful separation technique of capillary gas chromatography combined with the selectivity of mass spectrometric detection, muramic acid was not detectable in purified elementary bodies of Chlamydia psittaci Cal 10 (less than or equal to 0.006%) or C. trachomatis serovar E (less than or equal to 0.02%). This confirms previous reports which suggested the absence of a typical peptidoglycan in Chlamydia spp.
