  • Title: Use of nested polymerase chain reaction based on sequence-based typing of clinical samples to determine the source of infection for hospital-acquired Legionnaires' disease.
    Author: Scaturro M, Fontana S, Ricci ML.
    Journal: Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol; 2011 May; 32(5):510-2. PubMed ID: 21515984.
    Abstract:
    The source of infection of a hospital-acquired Legionnaires' disease case was determined for the first time by nested polymerase chain reaction based on sequence-based typing. The typing was performed directly on DNA extracted from tissue samples, allowing a rapid epidemiological correlation with environmental isolates.
