"Evaluation of wastewater surveillance for SARS-CoV-2 in Massachusetts correctional facilities, 2020– In Massachusetts, multiple state prisons implemented wastewater surveillance for strategic testing of Our objective was to quantify the correlation of COVID-19 cases with facility-level wastewater surveillance Consistently, ρ values were higher for facility-specific wastewater/resident cases than for town/resident Conclusion: We conclude that wastewater surveillance for SARS-CoV-2 can provide an additional signal

Wastewater surveillance is a critical tool for monitoring infectious diseases like COVID-19 at the community sequencing (WGS) provides comprehensive data but is often too complex and resource-intensive for routine wastewater developed a customizable digital PCR (dPCR)-based genotyping method for detecting SARS-CoV-2 variants in wastewater We compared dPCR genotyping to WGS using the same elution from each sample and applied the method to wastewater

Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) has emerged as a crucial tool for monitoring infectious diseases Influenza A viruses, known for their seasonal epidemics and pandemic potential, pose unique challenges for wastewater Traditional sequencing approaches for influenza A in wastewater often yield incomplete genomes due to improved genome coverage, offering a scalable and high-throughput solution for monitoring influenza A in wastewater

Genomic surveillance of Canadian airport wastewater samples allows early detection of emerging SARS-CoV 76925-6 Abstract The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic has shown wastewater In the Canadian province of Ontario, numerous municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) participate

Article Link : https://rdcu.be/e011L Abstract: Wastewater-based surveillance offers a cost-effective, Methods: From March 2023 to May 2024, 244 wastewater samples were collected weekly from four wastewater Results: Overall SARS-CoV-2 RNA detection was 88.5%, with higher positivity at the Nakivubo wastewater treatment plant inlets (1 and 2) and the Naalya wastewater stabilization pond (both 93.4%) than at the While same-week wastewater–clinical correlations were weak, lead–lag analysis showed wastewater signals

Wastewater surveillance is crucial for monitoring microbes across various regions. enterovirus A71, and Salmonella enterica —could be successfully captured and detected from a single wastewater

approach to quantify SARS-CoV-2, mpox virus, and fecal indicator, pepper mild mottle virus (PMMoV) in wastewater Wastewater surveillance, while promising as a public health tool, is often hampered by slow turn-around Wastewater samples (n = 131) were collected from residential and commercial manholes, pump stations, and a city's wastewater treatment plant. the predictive properties of wastewater surveillance.

Overview Using the Nanotrap® Microbiome B Particles to concentrate bacteria from wastewater samples from two rural wastewater treatment plants (WWTP), the Hawaii State Department of Health (HDOH) State Laboratories Within this period, KPC-1 and OXA-48 genes were prevalent within wastewater samples from both WWTPs, Wastewatern two separate Hawaiian islands. from the two WWTPs was found to show a similar AMR genetic

MedRxiv July 2022 ABSTRACT: Wastewater represents a composite biological sample from the entire contributing monkeypox excrete monkeypox virus DNA via skin lesions, saliva, feces and urine and these can enter the wastewater To test whether monkeypox can be detected and monitored in wastewater during a period when publicly reported We measured monkeypox virus DNA daily in settled solids samples from nine wastewater plants over the During that period, we detected monkeypox virus DNA in wastewater solids at nearly all the wastewater

Quantifying Respiratory Viruses in Wastewater Using GT Molecular's Digital PCR Assays coupled with Ceres Wastewater testing continues to gain traction as a viable means to monitor pathogens and provide timely Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) utility has already been successfully described to track infectious Multiple countries have implemented wastewater-based monitoring of SARS-CoV-2, and the COVID-19 case rates highly correlate with SARS-CoV-2 RNA found in wastewater.

Poster: Wastewater-based epidemiology has been widely used to monitor COVID-19 trends in communities, Variants have been successfully identified and quantified in wastewater using next-generation sequencing Samples were collected weekly from the influent of several wastewater treatment facilities, public schools Omicron sub-lineage detection using the assays was aligned well with the NGS results from the same wastewater Wastewater samples collected between mid-February 2022 and mid-April 2022 showed a rapid displacement

Lancet Regional Health, Americas February 2023 Safer at school early alert: an observational study of wastewater Previous research suggests that wastewater monitoring can detect SARS-CoV-2 infections in controlled objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness and accuracy of community-based passive wastewater were associated with an environmental sample (95% CI: 88%-98%); 67% were associated with a positive wastewater The techniques we utilized allowed for near-complete genomic sequencing of wastewater and surface samples
