Waterborne enteric viruses are an emerging cause of disease outbreaks and represent a
major threat to global public health. Enteric viruses may originate from human wastewater …

Microbial source tracking (MST) describes a suite of methods and an investigative strategy
for determination of fecal pollution sources in environmental waters that rely on the …

Abstract The Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is shed in
the feces of infected people. As a consequence, genomic RNA of the virus can be detected …

The primary concentration and molecular process are critical to implement wastewater-
based epidemiology for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) …

Bacteriophages are an attractive alternative to faecal indicator bacteria (FIB), particularly as
surrogates of enteric virus fate and transport, due to their closer morphological and …

This study is the first to report a quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) on
pathogens detected in stormwater discharges-of-concern, rather than relying on pathogen …

Two groups of bacteriophages that infect Escherichia coli, somatic and F-specific
coliphages, have been used in academia as both fecal and viral indicators for many years …

Fecal pollution, commonly detected in untreated or less treated sewage, is associated with
health risks (eg, waterborne diseases and antibiotic resistance dissemination), ecological …

Human adenovirus (AdV and AdV species F), enterovirus (EV) and norovirus (NoV)
concentrations entering wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) serving different-sized …

Environmental waters are monitored for fecal pollution to protect public health. Many
previously developed human-specific fecal pollution indicators lack adequate sensitivity to …
