Observed Kinetics of Enterovirus Inactivation by Free Chlorine Are Host Cell-Dependent

Tamar Kohn, Shannon Christa David, Shotaro Torii, Federica Cariti

Virucidal efficacies of disinfectants are typically assessed by infectivity assay utilizing a single type of host cell. Enteroviruses infect multiple host cells via various entry routes, and each entry route may be impaired differently by a given disinfect ...

Observed Kinetics of Enterovirus Inactivation by Disinfectants Differ among the Host Cells Used for Enumeration

Tamar Kohn, Shannon Christa David, Shotaro Torii, Odile Marie Clotilde Hervás de Nalda-Larivé, Federica Cariti

The virus inactivation efficacy of disinfectants is typically assessed by infectivity assay utilizing a single type of host cell. Enteroviruses infect multiple host cells via different entry routes, and each entry route may be impaired differently by a giv ...

Selective elimination of enterovirus genotypes by activated sludge and chlorination

Tamar Kohn, Shotaro Torii

Enteroviruses, which are commonly circulating viruses shed in the stool, are released into the sewage system and only partially removed or inactivated, resulting in the discharge of infectious enteroviruses into the environment. Activated sludge and chlori ...

Effect of wastewater treatment and environmental exposure on an enterovirus population

Odile Marie Clotilde Hervás de Nalda-Larivé

The presence of viruses in recreational water can present a risk for human health and wastewater effluent is a source of virus in the environment. Their persistence in the environment influences their probability to find a new host. Studies have shown that ...

Unveiling Viruses Associated with Gastroenteritis Using a Metagenomics Approach

Xavier Fernandez Cassi

Acute infectious gastroenteritis is an important illness worldwide, especially on children, with viruses accounting for approximately 70% of the acute cases. A high number of these cases have an unknown etiological agent and the rise of next generation seq ...

The susceptibility of waterborne viruses to different inactivating treatments is acknowledged to vary between viruses and even between closely related strains, yet the extent of this variation, or the underlying mechanisms, are not known. Here, different e ...

Variability in Disinfection Resistance between Currently Circulating Enterovirus B Serotypes and Strains

Tamar Kohn, Simon Meister, Marius Klinger, Matthew Eric Verbyla

The susceptibility of waterborne viruses to disinfection is known to vary between viruses and even between closely related strains, yet the extent of this variation is not known. Here, different enteroviruses (six strains of coxsackievirus B5, two strains ...

Indirect exposure to waterborne viruses increases risk of infection, especially amongst children with frequent hand-to-mouth contacts. Here, we quantified the transfer of one bacteriophage (MS2) and two enteric viruses (adenovirus and coxsackievirus) from ...

A bootstrap percolation process on a graph is an "infection" process which evolves in rounds. Initially, there is a subset of infected nodes and in each subsequent round each uninfected node which has at least infected neighbours becomes infected and remai ...

The tropism of retroviruses relies on their ability to exploit cellular factors for their replication as well as to avoid host-encoded inhibitory activities such as TRIM5α. N-tropic murine leukemia virus is sensitive to human TRIM5α (huTRIM5α) restriction, ...
