Evaluation of New Components in Modified Scholten’s Medium for the Detection of Somatic Coliphages
Food and Environmental Virology, 2020Enteric bacteriophages (somatic coliphages, F-specific coliphages or both together) are now recognized as useful viral indicators in water, shellfish, and biosolids and are being progressively included in national and international sanitary regulations.

Bacterial host strains that support replication of somatic coliphages
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 2003Somatic coliphages detected by Escherichia coli strain WG5 have been proposed as potential indicators of water quality. Their potential replication in the water environment is considered a drawback for their use as indicators. However, the contribution of replication outside the gut to the total numbers has never been quantified.

Factors influencing the replication of somatic coliphages in the water environment
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 2004The potential replication of somatic coliphages in the environment has been considered a drawback for their use as viral indicators, although the extent to which this affects their numbers in environmental samples has not been assessed. In this study, the replication of somatic coliphages in various conditions was assayed using suspensions containing ...

Somatic coliphages as bioindicators of contamination in Lake Guamuez, Colombia
Canadian Journal of MicrobiologyLake Guamuez is the second largest lake in Colombia and economically supports hundreds of families in the area. The main activities carried out in the region have focused on tourism, agriculture, livestock, and rainbow trout production; however, these activities have been associated with contamination of the lake.

Somatic Coliphage Profiles of Produce and Environmental Samples from Farms in Northern México
Food and Environmental Virology, 2016Somatic coliphages were quantified in 459 produce and environmental samples from 11 farms in Northern Mexico to compare amounts of somatic coliphages among different types of fresh produce and environmental samples across the production steps on farms.

Groundwater samples from two sites in Alabama, USA were plaque assayed for F-specific RNA (FRNA) coliphages using Salmonella typhimurium WG49 as the host bacterium. While numerous plaques were detected with WG49 (a strain possessing Escherichia coli F pili), plaques were also observed with an F- control strain of Salm. typhimurium.

Somatic and F-specific coliphages in New Zealand waste treatment lagoons
Water Research, 1995Abstract Three coliphages (FRNA, FDNA and somatic) and three bacterial indicators (faecal coliforms, Escherichia coli and enterococci) were measured in four waster-treatment lagoons over 10 months. Two of the lagoons treated domestic sewage; the third, meat processing waste and the fourth, meat processing waste with a minor sewage component.

Journal of Virological Methods, 2007
Extraction of viruses and bacteriophages from sludge, soil and treated biowaste requires homogenization, elution, clarification and detoxification-decontamination steps. Seeding these matrixes with bacteriophages does not reproduce what happens in nature.

The use of somatic coliphages as indicators of fecal and viral pollution in water and food has great potential due to the reliability, reproducibility, speed and cost effectiveness of methods for their detection. Indeed, several countries already use this approach in their water management policies. Although standardized protocols for somatic coliphage
