Distribution and persistence of Legionella in water systems.

J S Colbourne1, P J Dennis.   

Abstract

The Legionellaceae are common aquatic organisms able to colonize man-made water systems. Inadequately maintained or seldom used systems provide ideal amplification sites, where the organisms grow and can be disseminated in aerosols. Legionellaceae can utilize, for growth, compounds leached from construction materials and the products of other organisms.
