Evaluation of a new rapid test for detection of Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1 antigen in urine

For the diagnosis of legionellosis, a new rapid immunochromatographic test (V-tesT CORIS BioConcept) for detection of Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1 antigen in urine was evaluated in 21 samples of patients with legionellosis and 45 samples from patients with other respiratory infections.
