Disclosed are peptides or a mixture of peptides, or analogs thereof, derived from the variable domains of the Chlamydia trachomatis (C. trachomatis) immunodominant major outer membrane protein (MOMP). The peptides or mixtures of peptides are characterized by having specificity only to C. trachomatis anti-MOMP antibodies and being non-cross reactive with anti-MOMP antibodies of other Chlamydia species Specific peptides are described (SEQ ID Nos. 1 to 8) as well as their analogs, which have essentially the same biological activity.
