“…Therefore, the application of filter membranes with different elution buffers or pre‐acidification of water samples could improve the recovery rate of the virus (Bernhardt et al., 2021; Kongprajug, Chyerochana, et al., 2021; Li et al., 2010; Weli et al., 2021). The application of a filtered membrane to trap viruses in water is a common protocol to study the persistence of human and aquatic viruses (Ahmed et al., 2020; Haramoto et al., 2020; Joiner et al., 2021; Kongprajug, Chyerochana, et al., 2021; Kongprajug et al., 2021; Weli et al., 2021). For example, the electronegative charge filtered membrane was used in the study of the persistence of infectious salmon anaemia virus (ISAV) and salmon alphavirus (SAV) in seawater (Bernhardt et al., 2021; Weli, Tartor, Spilsberg, Dale, et al., 2021).…”
