Survival of wild-type and lspF mutant L. pneumophila at 37°C, 17°C, 12°C, and 4°C. Wild-type strain 130b and lspF mutant NU275 were inoculated at comparable levels into a second sample of sterile tap water and then incubated at the indicated temperatures. At the noted time points, the numbers of CFU in the samples, presented as means and standard deviations, were determined by plating aliquots on BCYE agar.
