Chemical characterization of lipopolysaccharides from Legionella feeleii, Legionella hackeliae and Legionella jordanis [PDF]

Microbiology, 1994
Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) from Legionella feeleii serogroup 1, L. hackeliae serogroup 1 and L. jordanis were subjected to chemical analysis. All three LPS contained D-mannose, D-glucose, D-glucosamine, L-glycero-D-manno-heptose, 2-keto-3-deoxyoctonic acid and glycerol. In addition the LPS of L.

Legionella longbeachae Enfeksiyonları

JENAS Journal of Environmental and Natural Studies, 2022
Lejyonelloz vakalarının çoğunu Legionella pneumophila oluşturmasına rağmen son yıllarda dünya genelinde Legionella longbeachae enfeksiyon olgularında artış yaşanmaktadır. Bu etken standart mikrobiyolojik kültürlerde üretilemez ve lejyonellozun tanısında sıklıkla kullanılan idrarda antijen testi ile pozitif sonuç elde edilemez.

Optimizing production efficiencies of hot water units using building energy simulations : trade-off between Legionella pneumophila contamination risk and energy efficiency [PDF]

, 2019
The energy needed for domestic hot water represents an important share in the total energy use of well-insulated and airtight buildings. One of the main reasons for this high energy demand is that hot water is produced at temperatures above 60°C to ...
