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}

Due to the lack of a reliable cultivation system, RT-qPCR is a gold standard technique for the detection and quantification of HuNoV.

This study aims to address this limitation by exploring the relationship between culture-based (plaque assay and TCID<sub>50</sub>) and non-culture-based (RT-qPCR) methods for HuNoV quantification, using Tulane virus as a cultivable surrogate. The ultracentrifuge-purified Tulane virus at 6.7 log<sub>10</sub> PFU/ml or 5.8 log<sub>10</sub> TCID<sub>50</sub>/ml in Tris–EDTA buffer (pH 7.2), was serially diluted and subjected to RNA extraction, with or without RNase pretreatment, followed by quantification with RT-qPCR. Further physical characterization of the virus stock was performed with dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy. A strong correlation (Pearson’s Correlation Coefficient of 0.99) was observed between log<sub>10</sub> genome copies (GC) and log<sub>10</sub> plaque forming units (PFU) per PCR reaction for both RNase-pretreated and unpretreated samples. Beta distributions indicated a similar median GC:PFU ratio of ca. 3.7 log<sub>10</sub> for both RNase-pretreated and unpretreated samples. The high GC:PFU ratio may indicate the sensitive nature of RT-qPCR or the presence of intact, non-infectious virus particles.

There have been only few studies of the association of viruses with particles in wastewater, particularly in secondary treated effluent. As secondary effluent is the source water to the reclaimed water treatment system, this study quantified indigenous enteric viruses, and viral indicators associated with particles in secondary effluents collected from five full-scale water reclamation facilities in the United States. Particle-associated viruses were enumerated using a sequential filtration followed by microfluidic digital PCR. This study showed that enteric viruses and viral indicators (crAssphage and pepper mild mottle virus, PMMoV) were attached to particles of different sizes in secondary effluent. Significantly higher concentrations of RNA viruses including PMMoV, norovirus, and enterovirus were detected in filtrate of the sequential filtration, which contained particles &lt; 0.45 µm. DNA viruses including adenovirus and crAssphage were found to be more associated with larger particles in secondary effluent. Overall, high correlations were observed between viral indicators and enteric viruses, supporting the use of crAssphage and PMMoV to evaluate virus removal efficiency in water and wastewater treatment processes.

Wastewater-based epidemiology utilizing next-generation sequencing serves as an effective tool for monitoring viral circulation dynamics at the community level. However, these complex environmental samples are often laden with other microorganisms and host genomic material, which can hinder the sensitivity of viral detection. To address this limitation, targeted enrichment sequencing is emerging as a preferred strategy, facilitating the acquisition of a more comprehensive understanding of specific pathogens. In this study, we evaluated the performance of a targeted enrichment sequencing panel for 42 excreted respiratory viruses (including <i>Picornaviridae, Adenoviridae, Coronaviridae, Paramyxoviridae, Orthomyxoviridae, Orthoherpesviridae, Pneumoviridae</i>, and <i>Parvoviridae</i> families), known as the Respiratory Pathogen ID/AMR enrichment panel (RPIP), coupled with Explify bioinformatics analysis in 3 sewage samples from Uruguay. RPIP panel successfully identified sequences from frequently circulating viruses, along with some that had not been documented previously. We identified and characterized various viruses, including human Enterovirus (Coxsackievirus A1 and A19), Influenza A-H1N1, and full-length sequences of SARS-CoV-2. Additionally, several other viral pathogens were detected, such as human Bocavirus, human Parechovirus, Enterovirus A71, and Enterovirus D68; however, for these viruses further analysis was limited due to the small genomic regions or low-read coverage obtained. While the RPIP panel necessitates substantial sequencing depth and may introduce bias towards the more predominant strains present in the samples, this approach suggests its viability as a genomic epidemiological tool for assessing respiratory and enteric viruses in wastewater.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":563,"journal":{"name":"Food and Environmental Virology","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142939334","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}
