  • Detection of potentially pathogenic enteric viruses in environmental samples from Kenya using the bag-mediated filtration system 
    Van Zyl, Walda B.; Zhou, Nicolette A.; Wolfaardt, Marianne; Matsapola, P.N. (Peter); Ngwana, F.B. (Fhatuwani); Symonds, Erin M.; Fagnant-Sperati, Christine S.; Shirai, Jeffry H.; Kossik, Alexandra L.; Beck, Nicola K.; Komen, Evans; Mwangi, Benlick; Nyangao, James; Boyle, David S.; Borus, Peter; Taylor, Maureen B.; Meschke, J. Scott (IWA Publishing, 2019-09)
    Enteric virus environmental surveillance via a highly sensitive method is critical, as many enteric viruses have low infectious doses and can persist in the environment for extended periods. This study determined the ...
