Serological cross-reaction between Legionella spp. and Capnocytophaga ochracea by using latex agglutination test.

S Chen1, L Hicks, M Yuen, D Mitchell, G L Gilbert.   

Abstract

Cross-reactivity between Legionella spp. and Capnocytophaga ochracea was noted by latex agglutination tests (Serobact Legionella; Disposable Products, Adelaide, Australia). Four of 11 (36%) C. ochracea isolates agglutinated with latex reagents designed to identify Legionella pneumophila serogroups. C. ochracea isolated on buffered charcoal yeast extract media may give false-positive results in this Legionella latex agglutination assay.
