Quantitative real - time PCR (qPCR) DNA -
based method specifically for testing Legionella pneumophila in water samples that has the advantage of much greater sensitivity coupled with the potential to provide results in as little as 24 hrs after
submission to the lab.
In our
submission, we tested all of the MW
methods in «pseudoproxy» experiments
based on long climate simulations (a standard benchmark used by practitioners in the field).
