Comparison of five polyethylene glycol precipitation procedures for the RT-qPCR based recovery of murine hepatitis virus, bacteriophage phi6, and pepper mild mottle virus as a surrogate for SARS-CoV-2 from wastewater

Shotaro Torii et al.

Summary: This study compared five PEG precipitation procedures for virus concentration efficiency, finding that operational parameters significantly affected the recovery efficiency. Shorter incubation time outperformed overnight incubation, and PMMoV may be a potential indicator for evaluating SARS-CoV-2 recovery efficiency.

Comparative decay of culturable faecal indicator bacteria, microbial source tracking marker genes, and enteric pathogens in laboratory microcosms that mimic a sub-tropical environment

Warish Ahmed et al.

Summary: This study investigated the decay of enteric pathogens and contaminants in freshwater using laboratory microcosms. It was found that culturable Escherichia coli and the HF183 marker gene decayed faster than qPCR-measured pathogens, indicating potential limitations in using E. coli or HF183 as indicators for pathogen presence. Additionally, temperature was shown to have a significant impact on the decay rates of microorganisms, with slower decay observed in winter compared to summer.

Co-occurrence of crAssphage and antibiotic resistance genes in agricultural soils of the Yangtze River Delta, China

Wen Li et al.

Summary: The study reveals that agricultural soil is highly susceptible to manure contamination and can serve as a potential source for the spread of pathogens and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). CrAssphage, a highly human-specific indicator of fecal pollution, is strongly correlated with soil ARGs, with a particularly close relationship with the tetracycline resistance gene tetW. Regional differences in crAssphage and ARG abundances suggest varying levels of fecal pollution in different areas of the Yangtze River Delta. Efforts to reduce fecal pollution and control ARG transmission in agricultural soils could benefit from high sewage treatment capacity.

CrAssphage and its bacterial host in cat feces

Yanpeng Li et al.

Summary: CrAssphages are a diverse group of phages detected in human feces, with their cellular host identified as anaerobic Bacteroides intestinalis. The presence of CrAssphages has been suggested as a marker of human fecal contamination. In this study, the genome of CrAssphage DNA was analyzed in a feline fecal sample, confirming its presence in a non-primate mammal.

Intraday variability of indicator and pathogenic viruses in 1-h and 24-h composite wastewater samples: Implications for wastewater-based epidemiology

Warish Ahmed et al.

Summary: The study found that 24-hour composite samples offer increased analytical sensitivity and decreased variability compared to 1-hour composite samples when monitoring wastewater, especially for pathogenic viruses with low infection rates within a community. This suggests that 24-hour composite samples are less likely to produce false negative results and erroneous public health information in wastewater-based epidemiology applications.

Performance of viral and bacterial genetic markers for sewage pollution tracking in tropical Thailand

Watsawan Sangkaew et al.

Summary: This study evaluated four human-associated MST marker genes and found that HPyVs and crAssphage are highly sensitive and specific for tracking sewage pollution in aquatic environments of Thailand. The bacterial marker genes also showed high sensitivity and specificity, and using both viral and bacterial markers could improve specificity.

Occurrence and distributions of human-associated markers in an impacted urban watershed

Yang Zhang et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the performance of different human-associated markers in urban water impacted by pollution, finding that Bacteroidales 16sRNA and crAssphage markers were more prevalent than Bacteroidales protein markers. Microcosm experiments showed that crAssphage markers had a lower decay rate compared to other bacterial target markers, potentially enhancing detectability when pollution sources are distant.

Bacteriophages Are Good Estimators of Human Viruses Present in Water

Elisenda Balleste et al.

Summary: Traditional bacterial indicators are not suitable for viral detection in water, so alternative methods like somatic coliphages are needed. Some phages have been found to be more suitable indicators of human fecal viruses than traditional bacterial indicators, making them a promising and cost-effective alternative for routine water safety monitoring.

Isolation and characterisation of φcrAss002, a crAss-like phage from the human gut that infects Bacteroides xylanisolvens

Emma Guerin et al.

Summary: In this study, phi crAss002, the first representative of the proposed Alphacrassvirinae sub-family of CrAss-like phages, was successfully isolated and characterized. It can co-exist at very high levels in liquid culture with its host, Bacteroides xylanisolvens, without impacting bacterial numbers, which suggests a potentially stable and significant phage-host relationship for further research.

Persisting antibiotic resistance gene pollution and its association with human sewage sources in tropical marine beach waters

Prasert Makkaew et al.

Summary: Antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) are global pollutants that pose a threat to human health and ecosystems. This study found that various ARGs were widespread at two tropical beaches, with intI1 being the most prevalent and showing correlations with sul1 and tetQ. The use of crAssphage as a proxy for ARG pollution could aid in developing effective management strategies to minimize ARG dissemination in marine environments.

Summary: Capsid integrity quantitative PCR (qPCR) is a molecular detection method for infectious viruses, but variations in pre-treatment conditions for different virus types may limit the efficacy of specific protocols. It is recommended to optimize specific protocols for each virus and a framework for general assay conditions has been identified, which can benefit the investigation of infectious virus transmission.

Co-quantification of crAssphage increases confidence in wastewater-based epidemiology for SARS-CoV-2 in low prevalence areas

Maxwell L. Wilder et al.

Summary: This study presents an ultracentrifugation-based method for concentrating SARS-CoV-2 wastewater RNA and uses crAssphage to help account for RNA loss. Using this method, SARS-CoV-2 RNA can be detected within as little as 4.5 hours, with stronger signals potentially indicative of greater COVID-19 incidence. Additionally, lower DNA concentrations of crAssphage were observed during periods of high flow.
