RNA-Seq of untreated wastewater to assess COVID-19 and emerging and endemic viruses for public health surveillance
1 May 2023
Abstract excerpt
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic showcased the power of genomic sequencing to tackle the emergence and spread of infectious diseases. However, metagenomic sequencing of total microbial RNAs in wastewater has the potential to assess multiple infectious diseases simultaneously and has yet to be explored. Methods: A retrospective RNA-Seq epidemiological survey of 140 untreated composite wastewater samples was...
