Abstract excerpt
Hepatitis E Virus (HEV) is an etiologic agent of hepatitis worldwide. HEV genotype 3 is the most prevalent in non-endemic regions, identified in humans, pigs and environmental samples. Thus, considering the zoonotic nature of HEV genotype 3, viral genome detection in wastewater concerns public health authorities. Electrochemical biosensors are promising analytical tools for viral genome detection in outside...
