The 2021 AOAC Annual Meeting & Exposition Legionellosis
Emerging Topics and Technologies PRE-COVID
Legionella bacteria is one of the top five causes of bacterial pneumonia
in the U.S but usually the source of infection is not obvious.
With a preventive purpose, they cover what the culture method does not
reach because of its limitations for that purpose:

Molecular velcro
“
Immunomagnetic separation is a method not
affected by competing microbial flora or inhibitors
present in the sample, and can show success of
biocide treatment, as it detects only viable
Legionella and would, therefore, be very useful
for risk assessment and water safety plans.”

Legionella Detection in Environmental Water Samples. Int. J.

Why be late
Customer assumes the cost of not knowing what is going on in

Conclusions
Through the Internet of things combined with Legiolab®, people can obtain a large
2 amount of reliable real-time information on time, in place, and over viable and
virulent Legionella, making it possible the optimal development of environmental
health protection.
Wireless sensor network has the advantages of easy installation and low cost, so
Health protection 3
microbial monitoring through the Internet of things is the future development trend.
