The Influence of Surfactant (Tween) to the Growth and Producing Activity of Esterase of Legionella Species and Legionella-Like Organisms Katsuhiko SAWATARI, Naomi ITOH, Masao NAGASAWA, Hiroko NAKASATO, Hironobu KOGA, Koichi WATANABE, Hikaru TANAKA, Kiyo FUJITA, Yoshiteru SHIGENO, Keizo YAMAGUCHI, Kinichi IZUMIKAWA, Atsushi SAITO & Kohei HARA 2nd Department of Internal Medicine, Nagasaki University School of Medicine Tween 60, one of the surfactants, is commonly used for isolation of Legionella species from environmental samples as pretreating agent of soil. We have studied on the influence of each Tween (Tween 20, Tween 40, Tween 60 and Tween 80) to the growth and esterase activity of Legionella species and Legionella-like organisms. The tested strains suspended in 0.01 mol phosphate buffer saline (PBS, ph 7.2) were exposed to various cocentrations of the Tweens. As the result, Legionella pneumophila (Philadelphia 1) was not influenced at all of the Tweens, but other strains of Legionella species were decreased, in viable cells after 6 hours exposure to almost all kinds of the Tweens. There was closely correlation between the decrease of viable cells and the concentration of the Tweens. Tween 20 showed bactericidal action against L.bozemanii, L. gormanii and L. longbeachae in the concentration of 0.1%. The, inhibitory activity of Tween 60 against the growth of Legionella species on B-CYE agar was less than those of other Tweens tested, but over than 0.5% concentration of this agent inhibited the growth of almost of all strains except L. pneumophila (ATCC33155, ATCC33215 and ATCC33153). From the result, the procedure of the isolation of Legionella species and Legionella-like organisms from soil must be finished within 6 hours exposure of 0.1 to 0.2% of Tween 60.
