Looks like it could be done as GC/Chlamydia (sm)
Subject: Looks like it could be done as GC/Chlamydia (sm)

I had always typed it as "GC and Chlamydia" but then again had nearly always heard an "and" from my docs. However it looks like it's a combo test:

Capitalization of Chlamydia
Is Chlamydia always capital according to AAMT rules?
RE: Capitalization of Chlamydia
the genus Chlamydia - All genus names should be capitalized. I do agrree with poster Anon.  This is something a transcriptionist should already know.  Book of Style rules would never apply.  This is a Latin term, i.e., genus, therefore is capitalized.  A quick look in a dictionary would have explained this to you.  I am not intending to give you a hard time, but basic transcription knowledge, i.e., research ability, is needed, not just the correct spelling of words.
