Abstract excerpt

Legionella pneumophila (Lp) is a Gram-negative bacterium found in natural and artificial aquatic environments and inhalation of contaminated aerosols can cause severe pneumonia known as Legionnaires' Disease (LD). In Brazil there is hardly any information about this pathogen, so we studied the genetic variation of forty Legionella spp. isolates obtained from hotels, malls, laboratories, retail centers, and...
