| adenovirus infections in immunocompromised patients. | adenovirus infections have been reported in as many as one-fifth of bone marrow transplant (bmt) recipients and patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (aids), and in a lesser, though still prominent, proportion of organ transplant recipients. the relative contributions of primary infections versus reactivations from latency in immunocompromised patients remain unclear. compared with adult bmt recipients, pediatric bmt recipients appear to be infected by adenovirus more frequently and e ... | 1997 | 10868146 |
| nine-year study of the occurrence of culturable viruses in source water for two drinking water treatment plants and the influent and effluent of a wastewater treatment plant in milwaukee, wisconsin (august 1994 through july 2003). | reoviruses, enteroviruses, and adenoviruses were quantified by culture for various ambient waters in the milwaukee area. from august 1994 through july 2003, the influent and effluent of a local wastewater treatment plant (wwtp) were tested monthly by a modified u.s. environmental protection agency information collection rule (icr) organic flocculation cell culture procedure for the detection of culturable viruses. modification of the icr procedure included using caco-2, rd, and hep-2 cells in ad ... | 2005 | 15691964 |
| detection of the human specific bacteroides genetic marker provides evidence of widespread sewage contamination of stormwater in the urban environment. | human sewage contamination of surface waters is a major human health concern. we found urban stormwater systems that collect and convey runoff from impervious surfaces act as a conduit for sewage originating from breeches in sanitary sewer infrastructure. a total of 828 samples at 45 stormwater outfalls were collected over a four-year period and assessed by culture based methods, pcr, and quantitative pcr (qpcr) to test for traditional and alternative indicators of fecal pollution. all outfalls ... | 2011 | 21689838 |

| concentration of enteroviruses, adenoviruses, and noroviruses from drinking water by use of glass wool filters. | available filtration methods to concentrate waterborne viruses are either too costly for studies requiring large numbers of samples, limited to small sample volumes, or not very portable for routine field applications. sodocalcic glass wool filtration is a cost-effective and easy-to-use method to retain viruses, but its efficiency and reliability are not adequately understood. this study evaluated glass wool filter performance to concentrate the four viruses on the u.s. environmental protection ... | 2008 | 18359827 |
