Development of an Improved Pcr-Ict Hybrid Assay for Direct Detection of Legionellae and Legionella Pneumophila from Cooling Tower Water Specimens

open access: yes, 2009
A novelly improved polymerase chian reaction and immunochromatography test (PCR-ICT) hybrid assay comprising traditional multiplex-nested PCR and ICT, (a lateral-flow device) was developed for direct detection of Legionella bacteria from environmental ...

Legionella pneumophilain Rainwater on Roads

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2009
During rain, transient puddles form on roads, and this water is splashed into the air by moving vehicles. To determine whether this water contains Legionella pneumophila, we collected samples from roads. We found that L. pneumophila are abundant in these puddles, especially during warm weather.

Occurrence of Legionella Pneumophila in Hot Potable Water in Latvia

open access: yes
Legionellae are found in freshwater environments or wet soil, but the major reservoirs are man-made aquatic environments, particularly warm water systems. Our aim was to study the occurrence of Legionella contamination in hot potable water supply systems

Sequence diversity of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of the rRNA operons among different serogroups of Legionella pneumophila isolates

open access: yes, 2002
The genus Legionella is represented by 48 species and Legionella pneumophila includes 15 serogroups. In this work, we have studied the intergenic 16S-23S spacer region (ITS) in L.
