Interaction between plant agglutinins and Legionella species.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Serogroups of Legionella pneumophila exhibited differential reactivities with plant agglutinin. Agglutination patterns were modified by growing the organisms in different media. The passage of four strains through guinea pigs did not result in altered reactivities with lectins or with plant agglutinins.

Background and Objectives: Legionella are gram-negative bacteria widely dispersed in natural and man-made water sources. Some Legionella species are pathogenic and could cause respiratory infections. Cultivation technique is the conventional method for the detection of Legionella spp. in aquatic samples. However, the method has low sensitivity and require prolonged incubation period. Theref...
متن کاملDetection of Legionella by cultivation and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction in biological waste water treatment plants in Norway.
Cases of Legionnaires' disease associated with biological treatment plants (BTPs) have been reported in six countries between 1997 and 2010. However, knowledge about the occurrence of Legionella in BTPs is scarce. Hence, we undertook a qualitative and quantitative screening for Legionella in BTPs treating waste water from municipalities and industries in Norway, to assess the transmission poten...
متن کاملLegionella Infection Risk from Domestic Hot Water
We investigated Legionella and Pseudomonas contamination of hot water in a cross-sectional multicentric survey in Italy. Chemical parameters (hardness, free chlorine, and trace elements) were determined. Legionella spp. were detected in 33 (22.6%) and Pseudomonas spp. in 56 (38.4%) of 146 samples. Some factors associated with Legionella contamination were heater type, tank distance and capacity...
