Environmental DNA

01/01/2019 - "Environmental DNA for improved detection and environmental surveillance of schistosomiasis."
11/01/2018 - "An environmental DNA (eDNA) detection system for Schistosoma mansoni was developed to improve schistosomiasis eco-epidemiology studies. "
01/01/2020 - "We anticipate that environmental DNA-based approaches will help to inform epidemiological studies and contribute to efforts to control and eliminate schistosomiasis in endemic areas."

01/01/2022 - "This study used a combination of bacterial isolation and environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding methods to understand the eco-epidemiology of leptospirosis in this endemic region. "
01/01/2020 - "In this study, an environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding methodology was applied in two different agro-ecological regions of Sri Lanka to understand the eco-epidemiology of leptospirosis. "
01/01/2019 - "Environmental DNA metabarcoding to detect pathogenic Leptospira and associated organisms in leptospirosis-endemic areas of Japan."

01/01/2016 - "In this paper, the present situation of environmental DNA analysis of macro organisms is described, and the possibility of application to infectious disease studies and the problems to be solved are discussed."
01/01/2016 - "Expectation for infectious disease studies using environmental DNA."
01/01/2009 - "Similar genetic elements can be found in nonpathogenic environmental bacteria and in metagenomic environmental DNA samples, and it is reasonable to suppose that integrons have facilitated microbial adaptation through LGT in niches outside infectious disease wards. "

01/01/2023 - "This study provides the first genomic resources for the Kroombit tinkerfrog to assist in future phylogenetic, environmental DNA, conservation breeding, and disease susceptibility studies."

05/01/2022 - "In addition, we evaluated the use of environmental DNA (eDNA) for surveillance and monitoring of ongoing infections at these locations. "
10/01/2021 - "We show that environmental DNA from both Heterakis and Histomonas persist in the environment long after prior infections, even in the absence of living Heterakis and its hosts. "
03/01/2021 - "Environmental DNA (eDNA) based identification of liver fluke and the intermediate snail host in the water bodies is a robust method to assess the risk of liver fluke infection on farms. "
04/11/2019 - "We trained volunteers from conservation organizations to collect environmental DNA (eDNA) from 21 ponds with amphibian communities that had a history of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) and ranavirus (Rv) infections. "
