A rapid microagglutination test for the diagnosis of Legionella pneumophila (serogroup 1) infection.

Abstract

A rapid microagglutination test has been developed which can be performed in 30 minutes. Ninety-seven percent of 96 patients diagnosed as having Legionella pneumophila (serogroup 1) infection by indirect immunofluorescence were also detected by the rapid microagglutination test.
