reservoirs in marine and freshwater environments, the understanding of which brought …

Management of faecal contamination of water would be improved if sources could be
accurately identified through water analysis. Human faeces are generally perceived as …

A variety of cell surface structures dictate interactions between bacteria and their

ABSTRACT A study of the presence of human viruses (adenoviruses, enteroviruses, and
hepatitis A viruses [HAVs]) in environmental and shellfish samples was carried out by …

Phages are valuable models or surrogates for enteric viruses because they share many
fundamental properties and features. Among these are structure, composition, morphology …
