Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Legionella Agar Base
Descrizione
Isolate Legionella from environmental samples and clinical specimens using this medium.
Isolate Legionella from environmental samples and specimens using Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Legionella CYE Agar Base when used with Legionella Growth Supplement SR0251A. Legionella CYE Agar Base is a non-selective medium that exhibits optimal recovery of legionellaceae in short incubation periods from both environmental samples and specimens.
Legionella are aerobic, motile, nutritionally fastidious, pleomorphic, gram-negative rods that require special growth factors in culture media to grow. Transmission occurs through aerosolization or aspiration of contaminated water, not person to person.
Legionellosis refers to two distinct clinical syndromes, Legionnaires’ disease, which most often presents as severe pneumonia, and Pontiac fever, which is an acute, febrile, self-limiting, viral-like illness. Over forty species of Legionella have been characterized, however Legionella pneumophila remains the most prevalent etiological agent of Legionnaires’ disease.
