LEGIONELLA PNEUMOPHILA

A complete qPCR kit for the detection of Legionella pneumophila

Legionella pneumophila is a bacterial pathogen that causes Legionnaires' disease, a severe form of pneumonia. It is commonly found in water systems and can be transmitted through inhalation of contaminated water droplets. Early detection of Legionella is crucial to prevent outbreaks in healthcare facilities, hotels, and other public spaces, where the bacteria can thrive and cause severe illness.

YouSeq's qPCR kit to detect Legionella pneumophila allows for rapid and accurate detection of the pathogen in water samples, enabling timely intervention to prevent the spread of the bacteria. By detecting Legionella early, potential outbreaks can be averted, saving lives and reducing the economic burden associated with healthcare costs and decontamination of affected facilities.
