Microbial source tracking of human and animal fecal contamination in Ecuadorian households

2025-08-25

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Exposures to both human and animal feces pose human health risks, particularly for young children in low- and middle-income country (LMIC) settings where domestic animals are common, water and sanitation infrastructure is often limited, and enteropathogen transmission is high. Microbial source tracking (MST) markers specific to feces from humans and particular animal types can be used to identif...
