Int J Syst Evol Microbiol . 2002 Jan; 51(Pt 6):1949-1957. PMID: 11760933
Novel Legionella-like isolates, strains Montbéliard A1T and Gréoux 11 D13T, isolated from two different French water sources, were studied taxonomically and phylogenetically. Morphological and biochemical characterization revealed that they were...

Jarraud S, Reyrolle M, Riffard S, Lo Presti F, Etienne J
Bull Soc Pathol Exot . 1999 Mar; 91(5 Pt 1-2):486-9. PMID: 10078391
The outbreak of pneumonia involving delegates to the 1976 American Legion convention at a Philadelphia hotel was the first example of travel-associated legionnaires' disease. Travel is now well known as...

Lo Presti F, Riffard S, Vandenesch F, Etienne J
J Clin Microbiol . 1998 Oct; 36(11):3193-7. PMID: 9774564
Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) was used for the identification of Legionella species. Primer SK2 (5'-CGGCGGCGGCGG-3') and standardized RAPD conditions gave the technique a reproducibility of 93 to 100%, depending...

Riffard S, Lo Presti F, Normand P, Forey F, Reyrolle M, Etienne J, et al.
Int J Syst Bacteriol . 1998 Sep; 48 Pt 3:723-30. PMID: 9734026
Species identification of Legionella in routine laboratory testing is hampered by the lack of highly discriminatory phenotypic tests. Amplification polymorphism of the intergenic 16S-23S spacer regions (ISR) has been previously...
