Wastewater-based epidemiologyThe COVID-19 pandemic has had an adverse effect on human health, economy, and diverse environments. Besides the general transmission of the virus through air droplets and human-to-human contact; it is also transmitted while infecting the digestive system, which ...
Surveillance data showed there had been an increase in viral RNA in wastewater over the past 15 days, the report cited data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. "Wastewater surveillance results showed uniform increases in viral levels across the state," Nirav Shah, the di...
"The presence of SARS-CoV-2 genetic material in wastewater provides an opportunity to monitor the spread of COVID-19 in a community. Although wastewater is not widely used as a disease surveillance tool, it is starting to gain some traction," says Masaaki Kitajima, an environmental engineer at...
Here we describe how monitoring wastewater from urban areas can be used to detect the arrival and subsequent decline of pathogens, such as SARS-CoV-2. As the amount of virus shed in faeces and urine varies largely from person to person, it is very difficult to quantitatively determine the ...
BOSTON (CBS) -- Wastewater is helping to track the presence of COVID-19 in Massachusetts. "COVID-19 is shed into feces which makes its way into the sewer and eventually the wastewater treatment plants," said Kyle McElroy, a research scientist at BioBot. ...
Recent studies revealed that patients who are diagnosed with COVID-19 often undergo fecal shedding of SARS-CoV-2 virus into wastewater, which makes wastewater-based epidemiology for COVID-19 surveillance a promising approach to complement traditional clinical testing. In this paper, we survey the ...

feces, and urine contain SARS-CoV-2, which can maintain its viability in sewage and the urban-rural water cycle to move towards seawater or freshwater; thus, the risk associated with contracting COVID-19 from contact with untreated water or inadequately treated wastewater is high. Moreover, vir...
in New York City. The other portion is analyzed at the University. To prep the wastewater for analysis, samples are concentrated down to a few microliters. Then, Solo-Gabriele delivers the concentrate to Mark Sharkey, a research assistant professor of infectious diseases, who uses an innovative...
