PCR-based 'serotyping' of Legionella pneumophila.

Journal of medical microbiology - 1 May 2009

Thürmer Alexander, Helbig Jürgen Herbert, Jacobs Enno, Lück Paul Christian

Abstract excerpt

Currently, several PCR assays based on 16S rRNA and virulence-associated genes are available for detection of Legionella pneumophila. So far, no genotyping method has been published that can discriminate between serogroups and monoclonal subgroups of the most common L. pneumophila serogroup 1. Our first approach was to analyse LPS-associated genes of seven L. pneumophila serogroup 1 strains, and we developed two...
