Echovirus 11 mutants with increased resistance to common water disinfectants

Tamar Kohn, Anna Carratala Ripolles, Virginie Bachmann, Qingxia Zhong

Common water disinfectants like chlorine have been reported to select for resistant viruses. Yet, only little attention has been devoted to characterizing disinfection resistance. The goal of this study was to produce disinfectant-resistant viruses and to ...

Inactivation of enteric viruses by ozone

Urs von Gunten, Tamar Kohn, Camille Wolf

In Switzerland, newly introduced regulation mandates the upgrade of major wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) with an advanced treatment step such as ozonation. This offers a unique opportunity to study the inactivation of enteric virus during ozonation of ...

Isolation and characterization of disinfection-resistant Enteroviruses

Tamar Kohn, Simon Meister, Marius Klinger

Human enteric viruses are a leading cause of waterborne disease outbreak worldwide. Their environmental persistence and resistance to disinfection treatments are two main factors that can influence the dissemination of these viruses, thus increasing the ri ...

Focal expression of adeno-associated viral-mutant tau induces widespread impairment in an APP mouse model

Patrick Aebischer, Bernard Schneider, Jean-Charles Bensadoun

Adeno-associated virus serotype 6 (AAV6) viral vectors encoding mutant and normal tau were used to produce focal tau pathology. Two mutant forms of tau were used; the P301S tau mutation is associated with neurofibrillary tangle formation in humans, and the ...

Direct and Retrograde Transduction of Nigral Neurons with AAV6, 8, and 9 and Intraneuronal Persistence of Viral Particles

Patrick Aebischer, Bernard Schneider

Recombinant adeno-associated viral (AAV) vectors of serotypes 6, 8, and 9 were characterized as tools for gene delivery to dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra for future gene therapeutic applications in Parkinson's disease. While vectors of all th ...

Virus disinfection mechanisms: the role of virus composition, structure, and function

Tamar Kohn, Krista Rule Wigginton

Drinking waters are treated for enteric virus via a number of disinfection techniques including chemical oxidants, irradiation, and heat, however the inactivation mechanisms during disinfection remain elusive. Due to the fact that a number of significant w ...

Disinfection Kinetics of Virus Aggregates of Bacteriophage MS2

Moritz Brennecke

The aim of this study was to determine the difference in disinfection between aggregated and dispersed virus. Bacteriophage MS2 was chosen as a surrogate for enteric virus. The first part of this project consisted of characterizing the aggregation of MS2 a ...

The outcome of a viral infection depends on the interplay between the host's capacity to trigger potent antiviral responses and viral mechanisms that counteract them. Although Toll-like receptor (TLR)-3, which recognizes virally derived double-stranded (ds ...

Lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) represents a useful experimental model of murine infection with a non-cytopathic virus, bearing resemblance to HIV and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections in humans. Recent data from the LCMV model indicate that the ...
