Abstract
Extracellular protease activity was measured in liquid cultures of representative strains from 6 serotypes of L. pneumophila. A variety of substrates were degraded, including denatured casein, skim milk, gelatin and hide powder azure, but not elastin.This publication has 18 references indexed in Scilit:
