Check our last manuscript now up on biorXiv! We analyzed the inhibitory capabilities of isolated aquatic bacteria towards different Legionella spp. and discovered variable outcomes, while reinforcing the role of biosurfactants (we specifically detected viscosin) as anti-Legionella compounds.

Variable inhibition of different Legionella species by antagonistic bacteria
The genus Legionella includes opportunistic pathogens inhabiting engineered aquatic ecosystems, where managing their presence and abundance is crucial for public health. In these environments, Legione...
