  • Title: Legionnaires' disease: concentrations of selenium and other elements.
    Author: Chen JR, Anderson JM.
    Journal: Science; 1979 Dec 21; 206(4425):1426-7. PubMed ID: 505018.
    Abstract:
    Selenium concentrations in the serums of 17 acutely ill Legionnaires' disease patients were significantly lower than in their matching convalescent-phase serums. This trend was not observed in ten similarly paired samples of serum from control patients with pneumonia. There were no significant differences in the concentrations of nickel, copper, bromine, rubidium, lead, barium, or titanium in the serums of Legionnaires' disease and control patients.
