Several methods have been described to detect the virus in food, but there are few data on qualitative and quantitative performance characteristics. In this study, we have developed an optimised method for quantitative detection of HEV in pork sausage based on a combination of previously published protocols. The method utilises sample disruption and phase separation with tri-reagent and 1-bromo-3-chloropropane followed by RNA concentration with isopropanol precipitation. We validated the method for use on reverse transcription quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) and reverse transcription droplet digital (RT-ddPCR). The 95% limit of detection and limit of quantification was 200 copies/g for both RT-qPCR and RT-ddPCR. RT-ddPCR technology has previously shown promise as a more precise alternative to RT-qPCR. However, we found no evidence for improved performance using RT-ddPCR instead of RT-qPCR for this method. Additionally, we further verified the performance of the HEV RT-PCR assay using the WHO International Standard and Reference Panel for HEV RNA. Finally, we assessed different combinations of RNA concentration protocols and RT-PCR detection strategies. This showed that isopropanol precipitation of viral RNA was at least twice as efficient as magnetic silica bead-based extraction when an inhibitor-tolerant RT-qPCR detection strategy was used. In summary, we present an efficient and well-characterised method for quantitative detection of HEV in pork sausage. Such methods are valuable to provide high-quality data for risk assessments and food monitoring.</p>","PeriodicalId":563,"journal":{"name":"Food and Environmental Virology","volume":"17 2","pages":"33"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144207337","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because of the high frequency of asymptomatic infections, the magnitude of HEV infection is underestimated. Wastewater monitoring could be useful to improve our knowledge on HEV epidemiology. In this study, we analyzed the capacity of wastewater surveillance to give an insight into the circulation and the diversity of HEV in two French cities. HEV RNA was detected and quantified by digital PCR in 115 untreated composite wastewater samples collected weekly at the inlet of wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), 58 at Toulouse WWTP and 57 at Dunkerque WWTP. Plasma HEV RNA in blood donors was detected by a commercial assay (Roche Cobas) over the same period in the same area. HEV diversity was analyzed using long-read single-molecule real-time sequencing (Pacific Biosciences). HEV RNA was detected in 88% and 95% wastewater samples collected at Toulouse (Occitanie region, Southern France) and Dunkerque (Hauts-de-France region, Northern France) WWTPs, respectively. HEV RNA concentration ranged between 4.1 and 5.7 log copies/L and was almost similar between the two sites. A long <i>orf2</i> fragment of HEV genome (1030 nucleotides) was obtained and sequenced in 45% and 70% of positive HEV RNA wastewater samples collected at Toulouse site and Dunkerque site, respectively. Out of 31 strains identified in Toulouse wastewater, 24 were HEV-3c (77%), 6 were HEV-3f (19%), and 1 was HEV-3h (3%). Out of 55 strains identified in Dunkerque, 30 were HEV-3c (55%) and 25 were HEV-3f (45%). All HEV RNA-positive samples from blood donors that could be genotyped during the study period contained HEV-3. Subtype distribution in 51 blood donors living in Toulouse did not differ from that in Toulouse wastewater. The HEV-3 subtype distribution in 51 Hauts-de-France region blood donors and in Dunkerque wastewater were different, but the predominant subtype was the same (HEV-3c). Lastly, we explored the link between the measurement of viral loads in wastewater and the extent of infection in the served population. Although a good correlation between the peaks of positive HEV RNA estimated in wastewater samples and that observed in blood donors was observed with a lag of + 3 weeks for Toulouse, the correlation was weaker for Dunkerque.

Therefore, this review aims to explore the complex interplay between iron homeostasis and viral infections, analyzing how iron availability affects viral replication, possible mutations, and pathogenesis. The interaction between viruses and iron, although less explored in the literature, indicates the influence of host iron bioavailability on parasite–host interactions. Furthermore, iron absorption is regulated by hepcidin, a peptide hormone produced by the liver, which reduces blood iron levels by inhibiting ferroportin function. Iron is important in viral growth and activities, potentially promoting replication, possible mutations, and increased virulence as seen in some studies with respiratory, enteric, and other viral models.

{"title":"In Vitro Efficacy of Foam Hand Sanitizers Against Enveloped and Non-Enveloped Viruses","authors":"Francis Torko,&nbsp;Kristen E.

Establishing the efficacy of hand sanitizers, including gel and foam formats, is crucial in reducing the transmission of viruses of human health concern, yet foam hand sanitizers are generally underexplored despite being widely used. Following American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) E1052-20, the efficacy of foam-based hand sanitizers—one non-alcohol-based hand sanitizer and four alcohol-based hand sanitizers with benzalkonium chloride and ethanol as active ingredients, respectively—were explored using bacteriophage phi6 (Φ6) as a surrogate for enveloped viruses and bacteriophage MS2 (<i>Emesvirus zinderi</i>) and Tulane virus (TuV) as surrogates for non-enveloped viruses. Significant differences in log reduction were observed among viruses (<i>P</i> ≤ 0.05). After a 10 s exposure, a 5.23 ± 1.64 log reduction was observed for Φ6 while MS2 remained resistant (0.04 ± 0.08 log<sub>10</sub> reduction). Conversely, significant log reductions (<i>P</i> ≤ 0.05) were observed for TuV across all foam-based hand sanitizer products ranging from 0.07 ± 0.1 to 1.09 ± 0.22. An exposure time of 10 s (i.e., the typical rubbing time in real-world scenarios following hand sanitizer application) is likely sufficient for enveloped virus inactivation based on the inactivation of bacteriophage Φ6 by the tested commercially available products. However, longer exposure times or different hand sanitizer formulations may be required to achieve similar log reductions against non-enveloped viruses such as human norovirus based on the surrogates (MS2, TuV) tested.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":563,"journal":{"name":"Food and Environmental Virology","volume":"17 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s12560-025-09640-8.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143769879","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
