Occurrence of coliphage in effluent: A systematic literature review and meta-analysis
Studies have illustrated that wastewater treatment methods targeting bacteria do not remove all types of viruses and available epidemiological studies indicate bacteria concentrations may not always be predictive of viral illnesses associated with ...

Uniqueness of RNA Coliphage Qβ Display System in Directed Evolutionary Biotechnology
Phage display technology involves the surface genetic engineering of phages to expose desirable proteins or peptides whose gene sequences are packaged within phage genomes, thereby rendering direct linkage between genotype with phenotype feasible.

Impact of flocculated and softened particles on UV254 inactivation of indigenous spores
Abstract US regulatory ultraviolet (UV) disinfection credit is typically granted when turbidity is ≤1 NTU. However, studies show turbidity does not always correlate well with UV dose responses. This study examined the impact of worst‐case high turbidity scenarios at drinking water treatment plants on UV254 inactivation of indigenous spores from ...

Virological and bacteriological quality of drinking water in Ethiopia
Since unsafe water is responsible for many illness, deaths, and economic failure, water quality monitoring is essential. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 218 drinking waters samples collected between February and June 2016 to assess water quality

Tracking epidemic viruses in wastewaters
Wastewater‐based epidemiology has emerged as a highly powerful, innovative, flexible, cost‐effective, and scalable tool for pathogen surveillance, which has been successfully used for monitoring various diseases. Abstract Classical epidemiology relies on incidence, mortality rates, and clinical data from individual testing, which can be challenging for

Complete genome sequence of the lytic
Background Phage ϕIBB-PF7A is a T7-like bacteriophage capable of infecting several Pseudomonas fluorescens dairy isolates and is extremely efficient in lysing this bacterium even when growing in biofilms attached to surfaces.
