title: [Genetic and immunochemical study of Legionella strains isolated in Sverdlovsk region].
abstract: Two strains of Legionella isolated from patient and hot water supply system during outbreak in Sverdlovsk region in 2007 were studied. Using genetic analysis methods (genes sequencing, VNTR-typing and PCR-based study of omp 28 gene), it was shown that tested strains are pathogenic but do not belong to one genetic group and epidemic cluster. Performed immunochemical analysis confirmed that both isolated strains belong to Legionella serogroup 1.
