Representative strains of each of the named species of Legionella were examined for isoprenoid quinones by reverse-phase thin-layer chromatography. All strains contained three or more ubiquinones (Q9, Q10, Q11, Q12, Q13) which were useful for placing the species into one of three distinct groups. Group 1 contained L. longbeachae, L. bozemanii, L. dumoffi, and L. gormanii; group 2 contained only L. micdadei; and group 3 contained only L. pneumophila. The identities of the quinones were established by UV spectroscopy and mass spectrometry.
通过反相薄层色谱法对嗜肺军团菌各指定菌种的代表性菌株进行了类异戊二烯醌检测。所有菌株均含有三种或更多种泛醌(Q9、Q10、Q11、Q12、Q13),这些泛醌有助于将这些菌种归入三个不同的组之一。第1组包括长滩嗜肺军团菌、博兹曼嗜肺军团菌、杜莫夫嗜肺军团菌和戈尔曼嗜肺军团菌;第2组仅包括米德戴嗜肺军团菌;第3组仅包括嗜肺军团菌。通过紫外光谱法和质谱法确定了醌的身份。
