Highlighting the Potency of Biosurfactants Produced by Pseudomonas Strains as Anti-Legionella Agents
Legionella pneumophila, the causative agent of Legionnaires’ disease, is a waterborne bacterium mainly found in man-made water systems in close association with free-living amoebae and multispecies biofilms. Pseudomonas strains, originating from various environments including freshwater systems or i...
