Negative enrichment procedure for isolation of Legionella pneumophila from seeded cooling tower water.

RESUMO
A negative enrichment procedure was developed which was capable of isolating Legionella pneumophila directly from seeded air-conditioning cooling tower water onto laboratory media. This procedure was based on an 8-h incubation under conditions that were bactericidal to the indigenous water microflora but merely bacteriostatic to L. pneumophila.
