Methods for Quantification of Soil-Transmitted Helminths in Environmental Media: Current Techniques and Recent Advances

TL;DR: It is concluded that methods for sampling and recovering STHs require substantial advances to provide reliable measurements for STH control and recent innovations in the use of automated image identification and developments in molecular genetic assays offer considerable promise for improving quantification and viability assessment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modeling Biphasic Environmental Decay of Pathogens and Implications for Risk Analysis.

TL;DR: This work demonstrates that biphasic dynamics can arise through a number of plausible mechanisms, and examines the identifiability of a general model encompassing three such mechanisms: population heterogeneity, hardening off, and the existence of viable-but-not-culturable states.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modeling environmentally mediated rotavirus transmission: The role of temperature and hydrologic factors

TL;DR: The analysis suggests that water can affect incidence for larger communities that draw water from slow-moving or stagnant sources and is likely most important in cooler seasons, and that environmental transmission through water sources may partially explain the observed associations between temperature and rotavirus incidence.
