3 May 2021
Abstract excerpt
Legionella species distribution in the Emilia-Romagna region, involving hospital (H) and community (C) environments, was conducted. Legionella culture, agglutination test, and mip-gene sequencing were applied on 240 isolates. The analysis showed a higher prevalence of non-Legionellapneumophila (n-Lp) species (84.1%) compared with L. pneumophila (Lp) (15.9%), with a higher frequency of n-Lp with respect to Lp...
