摘要：
Bdellovibrios have been isolated from surface waters but there are no reports of its occurrence in mains water supplies. One hundred and thirty five water samples from 81 sources were examined for the presence of Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus and Legion‐ella spp. Bdellovibrics were isolated by a double‐layer agar technique with two strains of Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1 as the host organisms. Bdellovibrio spp. were isolated from 57·8% and Legionella spp. from 9·5% of the samples. The two species occurred together in 4·4% of samples. The incidence of Bdellovibrio spp. and its occurrence with legionellas in man‐made water systems is discussed. Copyright © 1990, Wiley Blackwell. All rights reserved
