Research

Legionella.org's research efforts have contributed to advances in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of Legionnaires' disease. We continue to evaluate new and innovative control strategies. Our work includes experiments performed in the lab to evaluate biocides, biofilm behavior, and pathogen growth in batch and bench scale plumbing systems. The information generated from our research is presented to disinfection technology firms seeking our thorough and independent evaluations of their products, as well as shared with the public at technical conferences and scientific presentations.
