Study of the potential relationship between the morphology of infectious somatic coliphages and their persistence in the environment [PDF]

Journal of Applied Microbiology, 1999
The proportions of different morphological types of infectious somatic coliphages were determined in faecally polluted freshwaters. Myoviridae, followed by Siphoviridae, were the most frequently isolated morphological types in raw sewage, treated sewage and river water collected a few metres downstream from a sewage outfall.

Comparison of methods for the enumeration of coliphages in 100 mL water samples [PDF]

, 2023
In the last decade coliphages have been included in many water quality regulations as viral faecal indicators. However, the standardised methods used to detect and quantify coliphages differ in bacterial host strains, culture media and techniques.

Variations of the Virome in Raw and Treated Water: A One-Year Follow-Up at Six Different Drinking Water Treatment Plants. [PDF]

Environ Microbiol Rep
This paper describes monitoring of outgoing water from drinking water treatment plants, geographically spread over half of Sweden and sampled every other month for 1 year. We found differences in the virome from the different water sources from each plant as well as differences in virus size and seasonal variation, where we also could detect viruses in

Somatic coliphages and bacterial indicators of bathing water quality in the beaches of Gipuzkoa, Spain [PDF]

Journal of Water and Health, 2007
Monitoring the quality of the bathing waters of Gipuzkoa (the Basque Country, Spain) makes it possible to assess the suitability of its 15 beaches for bathing throughout each season. In 1998, the parameters E. coli, somatic coliphages (SOMCPH) and F-specific RNA bacteriophages (FRNAPH) were incorporated into the bathing water quality monitoring system.

Prevalence and seasonal dynamics of blaCTX-M antibiotic resistance genes and fecal indicator organisms in the lower Lahn River, Germany.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria represent an emerging global health problem and are frequently detected in riverine environments. Analyzing the occurrence of corresponding antibiotic-resistant genes in rivers is of public interest as it contributes towards

Behaviour of Somatic and F-specific Coliphages in Slow Sand Filter

Journal of Water and Environment Technology, 2012
Behaviour of somatic and F-specific coliphages, as model viruses, in a full-scale slow sand filtration (SSF) treatment plant of Japan was investigated through enumeration with the conventional plaque-forming unit (PFU) and the real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RRT-PCR).

Assessment of occurrence of somatic coliphages in drinking water in Poland

Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine
The use of Escherichia coli and enterococci as indicators of the presence of pathogenic viruses or parasitic protozoa is limited. In order to increase the control of enteric pathogens in drinking water, Directive (EU) 2020/2184 of the European Parliament and of the Council incorporates into microbiological analysis the determination of somatic ...

Inactivation of Escherichia coli and somatic coliphage ΦX174 by oxidation of electrochemically produced Fe2+

Journal of Water Process Engineering, 2022
Electrochemical ferrous iron (Fe2+) wastewater treatment is gaining momentum for treating municipal wastewater due to its decreasing costs, environmental friendliness and capacity for removal of a wide range of contaminants. Disinfection by iron electrocoagulation (Fe-EC) has been occasionally reported in full scale industrial applications, yet ...

Adsorption and survival of faecal coliforms, somatic coliphages and F-specific RNA phages in soil irrigated with wastewater

, 2001
International audienceThis study was carried out to compare the adsorption and survival of faecal coliforms, somatic coliphages and F-specific RNA phages in soil irrigated with wastewater. Adsorption isotherms showed that 3-10× more faecal coliforms than
