Contribution of Amoebic Coculture to Recovery of Legionella Isolates from Respiratory Samples: Prospective Analysis over a Period of 32 Months

We evaluated the contribution of amoebic coculture to the recovery of Legionella spp. from 379 respiratory samples. The sensitivity of axenic culture was 42.1%. The combination of axenic culture with amoebic coculture increased the Legionella isolation rate to 47.1%. Amoebic coculture was particular...
