Genomic analysis of Legionella pneumophila in the drinking water system of a large building over 25 years.

Microbial genomics - 1 May 2025

Seth-Smith Helena M B, Egli Adrian, Gautsch Sylvia, Bornstein Michael M, Kulik Eva M

Abstract excerpt

Legionella pneumophila, the causative agent of Legionnaires' disease, is often found in the plumbing systems of buildings, from where it can be transmitted to humans via inhalation or aspiration of contaminated water drops. Annual routine water sampling from the potable water system of an occupational healthcare building in Basel over 25 years was performed in accordance with national guidelines. Overall, 309...
