Local adaptation of <i>Legionella pneumophila</i> within a hospital hot water system increases tolerance to copper

2020-04-24

Abstract excerpt

In large-building water systems, Legionella pneumophila is exposed to common environmental stressors such as copper. The aim of this study was to evaluate the susceptibility to copper of L. pneumophila isolates recovered from various sites: two clinical and seven environmental from hot water systems biofilm & water, and from cooling tower water. After one-week acclimation in simulated drinking water, strains wer...
