“…Several tools have been developed and efficiently applied to distinguish human and animal fecal contamination in environmental matrices, such as microbiological markers (Ahmed et al, 2016;Derrien et al, 2012;Gourmelon et al, 2010;Heaney et al, 2015;Ohad et al, 2015;Raith et al, 2013;Seurinck et al, 2005;Solecki et al, 2011), viral markers (Cole et al, 2003;Gourmelon et al, 2010;Jofre et al, 2014;Lee et al, 2009;Muniesa et al, 2009;Tyagi et al, 2009) or chemical markers such as fecal stanols (Biache and Philp, 2013;Derrien et al, 2012;Gourmelon et al, 2010;Harrault et al, 2014;Jardé et al, 2018;Jeanneau et al, 2011;Leeming et al, 1996;Shah et al, 2007;Tran et al, 2015;Tyagi et al, 2009), pharmaceuticals or other compounds related to human consumption (caffeine, nicotine, artificial sweeteners) (Madoux-Humery et al, 2013;Tran et al, 2015;Wade et al, 2015). Markers of fecal contamination are often used in association in what is called a "Fecal Source Tracking (FST)…”
