A novel method for tracking structural changes in gels using widely accessible microcomputed tomography is presented and validated for various hydro‐, alco‐, and aerogels. The core idea of the method is to track positions of micrometer‐sized tracer particles entrapped in the gel and relate them to the density of the gel network.

Monitoring projects around the world are demonstrating that the detection of SARS-CoV-2 in wastewater can uncover both incidence trends and new variants before they become apparent in the clinic. A more systematic use of the methodology could also help fight other diseases and avert pandemics in the future. Michael Gross reports.

Data filtering methods for SARS-CoV-2 wastewater surveillance [PDF]
In the case of SARS-CoV-2 pandemic management, wastewater-based epidemiology aims to derive information on the infection dynamics by monitoring virus concentrations in the wastewater. However, due to the intrinsic random fluctuations of the viral signal in the wastewater (due to e.g., dilution; transport and fate processes in sewer system; variation in
