Commercially prepared polyclonal antisera to Legionella pneumophila are known to cross-react with organisms of the genus Pseudomonas. To determine whether a commercially available monoclonal antibody reagent specific for L. pneumophila would also cross-react with pseudomonads, a two-laboratory study was undertaken to test both monoclonal and polyclonal reagents against 33 isolates of Pseudomonas spp., including 25 Pseudomonas aeruginosa, 4 P. putida, 2 P. maltophilia, 1 P. fluorescens, and 1 P. alcaligenes. Four antisera were tested; polyclonal anti-legionella antisera pools A and B (Centers for Disease Control [CDC], Atlanta, (Ga.), polyclonal 1-6 antisera (BioDx, Inc., Denville, N.J.), and a monoclonal antibody reagent produced by Genetic Systems Corp., Seattle, Wash. All reagents were labeled with fluorescein. Cross-staining reactions were found with the BioDx L. pneumophila antisera and 10 isolates of Pseudomonas. Four of these isolates demonstrated cross-staining with CDC pool A. When tested with individual serotype-specific reagents (CDC), three of four cross-reacted with L. pneumophila serotype 1 antisera; the fourth cross-reacted with serotype 3. No cross-staining reactions were noted with the monoclonal reagent and any of the pseudomonads tested, demonstrating that the Genetic Systems Corp. monoclonal reagent is the most specific of the four reagents tested.
