A hospital-associated outbreak of Legionnaires' disease caused by Legionella pneumophila serogroups 4 and 10 with a common genetic fingerprinting pattern.

Abstract excerpt

An outbreak of eight cases of pneumonia caused by Legionella pneumophila non-serogroup 1 (non-sg 1) occurred at a Swedish university hospital in 1993. Including previous and subsequent sporadic cases, the total number of culture-positive patients was 13. Twelve available non-sg1 isolates from patients were compared to 50 environmental water isolates using a monoclonal antibody test for serogrouping and amplified...
