Recent Advances and Future Needs in Environmental VirologyThe global water quality inventory and environmental virology: status and implicationsThis book provides overviews and updates on basic research, diagnosis, epidemiology, and public health on enteric viruses, as well as on treatment and intervention to prevent their waterborne transmission. Data are presented and interpreted by leading researchers in the field in 13 chapters. An essential resource for virologists, epidemiologists, medical and public health professionals, graduate students and postdoctoral scientists at various levels of their careers.Key Topics Include:* Ecology of enteric viruses * Intervention measures from risk assessment to virus disinfectioPerspectives in medical virology ;v. 17.Waterborne infectionVirusesWaterMicrobiologyElectronic books.Waterborne infection.Viruses.WaterMicrobiology.579.2176Bosch Albert312785MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910451194603321Human viruses in water2089567UNINA
