Abstract

Monoclonal antibodies were produced against two strains of Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1. A panel of nine monoclonal antibodies were selected for their unique specificities observed in indirect fluorescent antibody tests with 130 strains of L. pneumophila serogroup 1. One monoclonal antibody was reactive with an antigen possessed by 128 of 130 strains. Two major subgroups were identified and 13 different antigen patterns were observed among the 130 serogroup 1 strains.
