dc.description.abstractThe Uni-Gold, the SAS and the Binax NOW immunochro matographic test (ICT) urinary antigen assays for the qualitative detection of Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1 were com pared using 39 unfrozen and nonconcentrated urine samples from patients with Legionnaires´ disease (LD). The Uni-Gold antigen test detected the urinary antigen in 41% (16/39), the SAS antigen test in 61.5% (24/39), and the Binax NOW antigen test in 74.3% (29/39). The Binax NOW ICT assay showed the best results when detecting L. pneumophila urinary antigen.
