Impacts of an urban sanitation intervention on fecal indicators and the prevalence of human fecal contamination in Mozambique

2021-02-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Fecal source tracking (FST) may be useful to assess pathways of fecal contamination in domestic environments and to estimate the impacts of water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) interventions in low-income settings. We measured two non-specific and two human-associated fecal indicators in water, soil, and surfaces before and after a shared latrine intervention from low-income households in Maput...
