Abstract excerpt

Genotyping of Legionella strains is important for the epidemiologic survey of Legionnaires' disease infections. In this study, we investigated the potential of repetitive element-polymerase chain reaction (rep-PCR) for differentiating various isolates of Legionella spp. We used 38 Legionella pneumophila isolates (collected in clinics all over Japan between 1980 and 2007), 19 environmental Legionella anisa...
