Article Link : https://rdcu.be/e011L Abstract: Wastewater-based surveillance offers a cost-effective, population-level complement to clinical testing for early detection of infectious disease outbreaks; however, its adoption in low- and middle-income countries remains limited. We conducted a study in Kampala, Uganda, to quantify SARS-CoV-2 RNA in wastewater and evaluate its association with reported clinical cases, thereby strengthening community-level surveillance strategies

In this study, we developed a customizable digital PCR (dPCR)-based genotyping approach to detect SARS-CoV-2 variants in wastewater.

Delaware Public Health Lab’s (DPHL) wastewater surveillance testing is using a predictive method to monitor disease for a more rapid public health response for the entire state of Delaware. Currently, the lab is running 35 wastewater samples per week to detect SARS-CoV-2, influenza virus A and B, mpox, and norovirus. They are planning to add Candida auris to their testing library in the near future. CUSTOMER ADVANCE SKU # 44XXX, 65XXX, 10XXX Lit. # PL-CS31397

The Driscoll Lab at West Virginia University uses genomics and bioinformatics to track disease agents and understand how they originate and spread from a One Health perspective. The laboratory processes environmental water samples from wastewater, surface water, and large-scale event wastewater on a statewide basis. The main laboratory is located at the West Virginia University campus, but they also have a mobile laboratory for onsite sample preparation, concentration, and ex
