Legionella colonization and 3D spatial location within a Pseudomonas biofilm

Scientific Reports
Biofilms are known to be critical for Legionella settlement in engineered water systems and are often associated with Legionnaire’s Disease events. One of the key features of biofilms is their heterogeneous three-dimensional structure which supports the ...

DataSheet1_Rapid Detection and Differentiation of Legionella pneumophila and Non-Legionella pneumophila Species by Using Recombinase Polymerase Amplification Combined With EuNPs-Based Lateral Flow Immunochromatography.docx

, 2022
Legionella, a waterborne pathogen, is the main cause of Legionnaires’ disease. Therefore, timely and accurate detection and differentiation of Legionella pneumophila and non-Legionella pneumophila species is crucial. In this study, we develop an easy and

Use of Partial 16S rRNA Gene Sequencing for Identification of Legionella pneumophila and Non- pneumophila Legionella spp

, 2007
We examined 49 Legionella species, 26 L. pneumophila and 23 non-pneumophila Legionella spp., using partial 16S rRNA gene sequencing. This approach accurately identified all the L.

Hippurate hydrolysis by Legionella pneumophila [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1981
Strains of Legionella pneumophila were shown to hydrolyze sodium hippurate in an overnight test system, but strains of L. bozemanii, L. micdadei, L. dumoffii, and some other organisms similar to the legionellae did not. Although only a small number of strains of legionellae other than L. pneumophila have been classified and tested, the results indicate
