Genetic diversity of Legionella pneumophila in hospital water systems.

International journal of hygiene and environmental health - 1 Mar 2008

Oberdorfer Klaus, Müssigbrodt Grita, Wendt Constanze

Abstract excerpt

It has been shown that different patients who had acquired legionellosis in a hospital setting were infected with the same strain even years apart. However, there are no longitudinal data describing the molecular epidemiology of Legionella pneumophila strains that contaminate a water system. This raised the question if there are any shifts of L. pneumophila strains over time, or after carrying out control...
