| Popis: | A commercial kit (EnviroAmp) designed to detect the DNA of Legionella species in environmental water samples using PCR and reverse dot hybridization was applied to clinical specimens. Results correlated well with culture for bronchoalveolar lavages. In addition, this test was easy to perform and showed good sensitivity. |
