This quest seems to give roughly a third of the XP that the other non-60 dungeon quests give; seems like an oversight on Blizzard's part. Barely worth going out of your way to pick up if leveling via Threads of Fate.
I got this quest and finished it but couldn't turn it in. For me it was enough to pick up the quest A Plague on Your House
Once you have it you're tasked with speaking to the Plaguefall: Knee Deep In It quest return guy Vial Master Lurgy and when doing that I could turn in the quest.
A Plague on Your House is picked up where you run in to the area at 58, 72.

Description
There are many in the House of Plagues who survived its destruction only to later fall victim to the plagues released in the explosion. Margrave Stradama herself was driven mad from a mixture of twelve different airborne poxes! These dangers still remain and spread out from the ruins, infecting new victims daily. I need you to travel into the ruins and recover samples from the victims there.
