Impact of temperature on <i>Legionella pneumophila</i> , its protozoan host cells, and the microbial diversity of the biofilm community of a pilot cooling tower

2019-12-13

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Legionella pneumophila (Lp) is a waterborne bacterium known for causing Legionnaires’ Disease, a severe pneumonia. Cooling towers are a major source of outbreaks, since they provide ideal conditions for Lp growth and produce aerosols. In such systems, Lp typically grow inside protozoan hosts. Several abiotic factors such as water temperature, pipe material and disinfection regime affect the co...
