| survival of human enteroviruses in the hawaiian ocean environment: evidence for virus-inactivating microorganisms. | the stability of certain human enteroviruses in the hawaiian ocean environment was examined. the present data indicated that the time for 90% reduction of poliovirus type 1 at 24 +/- 1 degree c in seawater samples obtained from different sites in hawaii ranged from 24 to 48 h, and complete inactivation occurred within 72 to 96 h. the accumulated evidence also strongly indicated that a virus-inactivating agent(s) of a microbiological nature was present in both clean and sewage-polluted seawaters, ... | 1980 | 6250472 |

| a predominant role for norwalk-like viruses as agents of epidemic gastroenteritis in maryland nursing homes for the elderly. | stool specimens from 156 maryland nursing home residents, who became ill during 20 outbreaks of gastroenteritis from november 1987 through february 1988, were analyzed. all tested negative for astroviruses, enteroviruses, group a rotaviruses, sapporo-like caliciviruses, and enteric bacteria (i.e., salmonella, clostridium, and shigella species). eighty-two (52%) were positive for norwalk-like viruses (nlvs), members of the family caliciviridae. six distinct genetic clusters within genogroups i an ... | 2002 | 11807686 |
| incidence of enteroviruses in mamala bay, hawaii using cell culture and direct polymerase chain reaction methodologies. | the consequence of point and nonpoint pollution sources, discharged into marine waters, on public recreational beaches in mamala bay, hawaii was evaluated using virus cell culture and direct reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (rt-pcr). twelve sites, nine marine, two freshwater (one stream and one canal), and one sewage, were assessed either quarterly or monthly for 1 year to detect the presence of human enteric viruses. water samples were concentrated from initial volumes of 400 l t ... | 1998 | 9734309 |

| swimmer risk of gastrointestinal illness from exposure to tropical coastal waters impacted by terrestrial dry-weather runoff. | this study used molecular methods to measure concentrations of four enteric viruses (adenovirus, enterovirus, norovirus gi, and norovirus gii) and fecal source tracking markers (human, ruminant, and pig bacteroidales) in land-based runoff from 22 tropical streams on o'ahu, hawai'i. each stream was sampled twice in the morning and afternoon during dry weather. viruses and human bacteroidales were widespread in the streams. watershed septic tank densities were positively associated with higher occ ... | 2011 | 21780808 |
