The efficiency of concentration methods used to detect enteric viruses in anaerobically digested sludge

Abstract: The presence of enteric viruses in biosolids can be underestimated due to the inefficient methods (mainly molecular methods) used to recover the viruses from these matrices. Therefore, the goal of this study was to evaluate the different methods used to recover adenoviruses (AdV), rotavirus species A (RVA), norovirus genogroup II (NoV GII) and the hepatitis A virus (HAV) from biosolid samples at a large urban wastewater treatment plant in Brazil after they had been treated by mesophilic anaerobic digestion.

“…The magnitude of viral loss in this study is, however, in accordance with those of other studies on virus detection in wastewater (21,22,33). In addition, the concentration seemed to have removed inhibitors of qPCR present in raw sewage, as has been shown also by others (21,22,33,34).…”

“…Outros vírus como JC polioma vírus [JCPyV]), colifagos e bacteriófagos também vêm sendo avaliados como potenciais indicadores de contaminação em diversas matrizes ambientais 24,62,64,65,66 . Entretanto, as facilidades na detecção dos AdV, que incluem seu isolamento em uma diversidade de cultivos celulares permitindo estudos de avaliação de risco, assim como sua estabilidade no ambiente, podem favorecer sua escolha 4,20,62,64,65 , embora ainda não exista um consenso sobre um marcador ideal.…”

“…Adicionalmente, requer uma etapa prévia de concentração das amostras para redução do volume delas e a posterior utilização em análises moleculares. Essa etapa resulta na concentração de substâncias biológicas e químicas (ácidos húmicos, fúlvicos, gorduras, proteínas, polifenóis, metais pesados) presentes na amostra que interferem ou inibem as enzimas utilizadas nas metodologias de detecção 1,2,66,78 . Por esse motivo, muitas vezes, os métodos utilizados para a detecção de vírus em diferentes matrizes ambientais geram resultados falso-negativos 2,78,79 .…”
