Isolation of a new serotype of legionnaires' disease bacterium.

P H Edelstein, R D Meyer, S M Finegold.   

Abstract

A new serotype of the legionnaires' disease bacterium has been isolated. The strain appears to be identical with the Philadelphia strain except for the cell-wall antigens as tested by a direct fluorescent antibody technique. Demonstration of a new serotype brings into question the diagnostic specificity of currently used reference strains.
