Hospital wastewater-based antimicrobial resistance epidemiology: a scoping review

Abstract Introduction: Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) offers pooled biological samples of defined populations, complementing clinical surveillance for infectious diseases. Hospitals are hotspots for antimicrobial resistance (AMR). We performed a scoping review assessing hosp...

Prospective metagenomic sequencing of wastewater across the United States yields robust viral enrichment and concordance with digital PCR measurements

Metagenomic sequencing is increasingly applied to wastewater to characterize the diversity, dynamics, and relative abundance of human and animal viruses. Among these sequencing approaches are those that enrich viral nucleic acids from the wastewater matrix, aiming to increase the...
