The aim of the advertised literature study is the systematic collection and critical evaluation of the current scientific knowledge on infections caused by Legionella pneumophila serogroups 2-14 and by non-pneumophila Legionella species. The The focus is on the transmission route via water, particularly drinking water, cooling towers and wastewater. The study provides a comprehensive compilation of published infection cases as well as the microbiological and molecular biological methods used in each case Detection methods for diagnosing pathogens. Another focus is on analyzing the occurrence of various Legionella species in the drinking water system. The available literature is systematically evaluated in order to determine frequencies of occurrence, To record and evaluate species distributions and relevant influencing factors. In addition, an in-depth scientific study of the factors influencing the growth of Legionella spec. with special consideration of the depending on the temperature. Both results from laboratory studies and data from real system conditions must be taken into account. The aim is to gain a sound understanding of temperature-dependent growth dynamics of different types To obtain Legionella species in order to assess health risks in the context of water-bearing systems based on evidence and to derive appropriate measures to minimize risks. Further technical details can be found in the service description remove.
