Application of multi-step approach for comprehensive identification of microplastic particles in diverse sediment samples

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2021
The tremendous increase of plastic production, its intensive usage in packaging, as transport material, and the insufficient management of plastic garbage have led to a rise in microplastic particles as an anthropogenic contaminant in our environment. To

First Detection of Mycobacterium ulcerans DNA in Environmental Samples from South America [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The occurrences of many environmentally-persistent and zoonotic infections are driven by ecosystem changes, which in turn are underpinned by land-use modifications that alter the governance of pathogen, biodiversity and human interactions.

In Situ Capture RT-qPCR Method for Detection of Human Norovirus in Food and Environmental Samples

open access: yesProceedings, 2020
Human noroviruses (HuNoVs) are the major cause of non-bacterial acute gastroenteritis worldwide. RT-qPCR is a widely used method to detect HuNoVs. However, the method is unable to extract a virus from environmental samples and to discriminate between ...

Archeomicrobiology applied to environmental samples

open access: yesMicrobial Pathogenesis, 2020
The study of ancient microorganisms represents one of the main ways to understand how microbes have evolved to date, especially those associated with humans or ecosystems of interest. However, these studies are always tedious because the viability of the microbes is difficult to maintain and the degradation of their DNA, can make their detection ...
