摘要
Aim: To characterize the genetic diversity of unrelated Legionella pneumophila clinical isolates in Catalonia and compare with other European regions. Methods: 95 unrelated isolates were analyzed using monoclonal antibodies and sequence-based typing, 1989-2013. Results: The isolates showed a high diversity (IOD 0.964) with a predominance of some profiles (ST37-Phialdelphia, ST23-Philadelphia and ST1-OLDA). All regions had predominant sequence types (STs) that differed between regions, and only 3% of STs were shared between the three regions. Conclusion: L. pneumophila clinical isolates from Catalonia presented a high diversity and can be used in epidemiological surveillance studies. The heterogeneous predominance of STs between European regions suggested a relationship between geographical distribution and virulence of some STs.
