A semiautomated, kinetic-dependent, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (K-ELISA) was adapted to detect serum antibodies to Legionella pneumophila. In a comparative study, 158 human serum samples (79 pairs) were tested by K-ELISA and the standard indir

Confirmation of a culture as Legionella when it is unreactive with available serologic reagents involves tests that are impractical in most clinical laboratories. A nucleic acid probe that hybridizes only to members of the genus Legionella was recent

The modification of the CAMP test for goup B streptococci involved substituting a paper disk impregnated with partially purified beta-hemolysin for the staphylococcal culture that was the source of beta-hemolysin in the original test. The disk is pla

We used the slide agglutination test to determine the serologic relationships of 22 Legionella spp. representing 33 serogroups. Antisera prepared against 14 of the Legionella spp. contained cross-reactive antibodies (1+ or greater) at their working d

Sera from six outbreaks of legionellosis and four outbreaks of pneumonia of other etiologies were tested with the indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA) as currently performed. The current IFA is at least as sensitive as the original test in detecti

The HCl-extracted purified polysaccharide type antigens of group B Streptococcus types Ia and Ib were composed of galactose and N-acetylglucosamine in a molar ratio of 3:1 for the Ia antigen and 2:1 for the Ib antigen. Immunochemical data were the sa

Evidence obtained by others who used direct immunofluorescence staining to demonstrate serological differences among strains of Legionnaires disease bacterium prompted this study of parameters influencing the ability of the indirect immunofluorescenc

It is important to resolve existing differences of opinion regarding group B streptococcal type distribution in human disease because of the relevance of type prevalence to future programs of prevention. This report compares data obtained from typing
