Description			Legionella pneumophila is a flagellated gram negative bacterium found primarily in warm water environments. Legionella pneumophila causes a type of pneumonia called Legionnaires’ disease and a milder condition called Pontiac fever. Infection is acquired through inhalation of the microorganism in water mists (e.g. from air conditioning, cooling towers, whirlpool spas and showers mists). A number of risk factors for acquiring Legionnaires’ disease have been identified, including age, smoking, chronic lung disease, cancer, and immunosuppression. Source: Legionella pneumophila clinical strain from coproculture. Applications: Suitable for use as a positive control in Lateral Flow. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Inactivation: Binary Ethylenimine and Formaldehyde Inactivation. Confirmed by absence of colonies after 72 hours. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months after receipt.
