Environmental Sciences Environmental Sciences & Ecology Food Science & Technology Life Sciences & Biomedicine Microbiology Science & Technology Virology
Salivirus/klassevirus sequences were identified in 7 (15 %) wastewater samples collected in Arizona monthly for a year, with the highest concentration of 2.28 x 10(5) and 2.46 x 10(4) copies/L in influent and effluent, respectively. This is the first report of quantification and genetic analysis of salivirus/klassevirus in water samples in the United States.
