Isolation of Legionella pneumophilia from cooling tower water by filtration
Applied and Environmental Microbiology
|May 1, 1981
Abstract:
Methods are described for detection of Legionella pneumophila in cooling tower water or other water sources by direct fluorescent-antibody staining. A procedure for isolation of Legionella bacteria from water samples by guinea pig inoculation is described. Two different serogroups of L. pneumophila were isolated repeatedly from one of the cooling towers.
