Legionella pneumophila serogroup 12 isolated from human and environmental sources.
A Legionella-like organism (strain 570-CO-H [= ATCC 43290]) isolated from the lung tissue of a patient with pneumonia was shown by growth, as well as physiological, serological, and genetic characteristics, to belong to a new Legionella pneumophila serogroup, serogroup 12. Two additional strains were detected with antiserum specific for strain 570-CO-H. These strains were isolated from environm...
متن کاملThirteenth serogroup of Legionella pneumophila isolated from patients with pneumonia.
A Legionella-like organism (strain 82A3105; ATCC 43736) was isolated from a lung aspirate taken from a patient with pneumonia. Results of physiologic, gas-liquid chromatographic, genetic, and serologic tests showed that strain 82A3105 and four additional clinical isolates belong to a new Legionella pneumophila serogroup, serogroup 13.
متن کاملLegionellosis from Legionella pneumophila Serogroup 13
We describe 4 cases of Legionella pneumophila serogroup 13-associated pneumonia. These cases originate from a broad geographic range that includes Scotland, Australia, and New Zealand. L. pneumophila serogroup 13 pneumonia has a clinically diverse spectrum that ranges from relatively mild, community-acquired pneumonia to potentially fatal severe pneumonia with multisystem organ failure. All cas...
متن کاملIsolation of Legionella pneumophila serogroup 14 from a human source.
A strain of Legionella pneumophila serogroup 14 was isolated during a retrospective study, after death from the sputum of a patient who had had acute leukaemia and pneumonia. This is the third strain of that serogroup to be isolated from a human source. This event emphasises the importance of performing culture as well as serological tests, so as to detect cases of legionellosis caused by strai...
متن کاملAntigenic and genetic variation in Legionella pneumophila serogroup 6.
Legionella pneumophila subsp. pneumophila serogroup 6 is second in importance only to L. pneumophila serogroup 1 as a cause of legionellosis. Monoclonal antibody (MAb) reactivity and multilocus enzyme electrophoretic analyses were used to subtype serogroup 6 isolates as a potential aid for epidemiologic and virulence studies. Forty-eight serogroup 6 isolates submitted to the Centers for Disease...
