Interpreting the Results
Positive Results:
A positive test result indicates that Legionella pneumophilaserogroup1bacteriawerepresentinthesample
above the detection limit.
The test does not differentiate between viable (living) and non-viable (dead) organisms. The test will detect vi-
able but non-cultruable bacteria which are not detectable by traditional laboratory techniques. A positive result
does not necessarily mean that viable bacteria are present.
When a positive result is observed, seek advice from your risk management plan, or water treatment specialist.
Negative Results:
A negative test result indicates that Legionella pneumophilaserogroup1bacteriawerenotdetectedorthe
number of bacteria in the sample were below the detection limit.
A negative result does not necessarily mean that Legionella bacteria are absent.
A negative result does not mean that the system is completely free from risks associated with Legionella bacte-
ria. The test only detects Legionella pneumophilaserogroup1.Thetestdoesnotdetectthepresenceofother
Legionella species or serogroups.
