RISControl of Viral and Bacterial Contamination of Lettuce by Subsurface Drip Irrigation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Foodborne outbreaks have been associated with the use of irrigation water contaminated with human and animal wastes. The use of subsurface drip irrigation may reduce the contamination of leafy green produce. The goal of ...
Resuspension and Attachment of PhiX174 in Sediment Laden Flow
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: To improve the understating of viral pathogens’ resuspension from bed sediment and their attachment to suspended sediment, a series of flume experiments using a coliphage surrogate, PhiX174, were conducted with two sediments: ...
Resuspension of <i>Escherichia coli</i> and MS2 Bacteriophage from Bed Sediment in Irrigation Canals

Comparison of Crop Contamination by Microorganisms during Subsurface Drip and Furrow Irrigation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study was conducted to compare subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) with furrow irrigation (FI) in crop contamination with microbial-contaminated water irrigation.
Bacteriophages MS2 and PRD1 in Turfgrass by Subsurface Drip Irrigation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The contamination of turfgrass by bacteriophages MS-2 and PRD-1 was assessed in the field under sprinkler irrigation (SI) and subsurface drip irrigation (SDI). No contamination of turfgrass by MS-2 was observed using SDI ...
Experimental Study of PhiX174 Resuspension from Mobile Bed Sediment
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: PhiX174 (or ΦX174) is a spherical single-stranded DNA bacteriophage used as a surrogate to study viral enteric pathogens in the environment. The resuspension of viral pathogen from bed sediment in irrigation canals impairs ...
