Abstract Root cause analysis following microbial water contamination events typically relies upon the collection of large sample volumes. Dead‐end ultrafiltration (DEUF) is an efficient method for sampling and transporting up to 100 L of water from field environments. A single‐lab validation (SLV) using DEUF to recover Shiga toxin‐producing Escherichia

Intestinal parasites pose a risk to public health globally, causing a high economic burden in developing countries. Most diagnostic methods aimed at detecting these parasites in hospital settings are not sensitive to recovering parasites. Hence, the prevalence of these diseases remains a challenge in areas of poor environmental sanitation and ...

Multilocus Sequence Typing Tool forCyclospora cayetanensis [PDF]
Because the lack of typing tools for Cyclospora cayetanensis has hampered outbreak investigations, we sequenced its genome and developed a genotyping tool. We observed 2 to 10 geographically segregated sequence types at each of 5 selected loci. This new tool could be useful for case linkage and infection/contamination source tracking.
