		Chlamydia trachomatis specific antigen useful for the serological diagnosis of lymphogranuloma venereum, said antigen having a molecular weight of about 160,000, being stable to ribonuclease and deoxyribonuclease and at a pH in the range 2.2-10.6 but whose antigenicity is destroyed by protease treatment and heating at a temperature of 56.degree.
		It was found that one of the solubilized antigens of lymphogranuloma venereum strain LGV-434 was strongly and consistently precipitated by the patient's sera.
		In the preparation of the purified Chlamydia trachomatis specific antigen of this invention, monospecific antiserum to a species-specific antigen of Chlamydia trachomatis (antigen 0.65) was prepared in rabbit using a precipitate from two-dimensional immunoelectrophorograms as immunogen.
