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