Genetic Diversity and Evaluation of Virulence Potential of Legionella pneumophila Isolated from Water-Supply Systems of Residential Buildings in Latvia

2023-05-30

Abstract excerpt

Legionella is an opportunistic pathogen with a biphasic life cycle and humans are occasional hosts of Legionella. The aim of the study was to assess the distribution of virulence genes and genetic diversity among L. pneumophila isolated from water-supply systems of residential buildings in Latvia. In total, 492 water samples from 200 residential buildings were collected. Identification of Legionella spp. was perfo...
