Beyond SARS-CoV-2: Application of Absolute Q Digital PCR System for Waterborne Pathogens
Offered By: Labroots via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the application of the Absolute Q digital PCR system for detecting waterborne pathogens in this 41-minute webinar presented by Dr. Huiyun Wu, a research scientist at Tulane University's School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine. Delve into the challenges of monitoring enteric pathogens in environmental water samples, focusing on microbial contaminants listed in the U.S. EPA's Contaminant Candidate List (CCL4). Learn about the importance of detecting low-concentration pathogens such as human adenoviruses, enteroviruses, noroviruses, Salmonella enterica, and Campylobacter jejuni, which are linked to enteric disease outbreaks. Gain insights into advanced detection methods that go beyond SARS-CoV-2 surveillance, addressing global health and economic challenges posed by waterborne pathogens in natural and built environments.
