Additional file 1: of Persistent presence of outer membrane epitopes during short- and long-term starvation of five Legionella pneumophila strains

Abstract

Figure S1. Culturability of five L. pneumophila strains during starvation [18]. Table S1. Spearman’s rank correlation results of the IF-FCM-data and the viability data (taken from the parallel investigations [18]). Figure S2. Example plots for IF-FCM analysis (mAb 8/4 and mAb MOMP) of starved Legionella cells and gating strategy after IF staining. Figure S3. Viability indicator data for the five L. pneumophila strains examined during starvation in ultrapure water at 45 °C for up to 400 days [18]. (DOCX 868 kb
