Previous research has explored the contextual and programmatic factors that influence CLTS performance. Less is known about the community-level conditions that sustain latrine coverage and use. We hypothesized three categories of community conditions underlying CLTS sustainability: (i) engagement of community leaders, (ii) follow-up intensity, and (iii) support to poor households. We evaluated these among communities in Cambodia and Ghana, and applied fuzzy-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA) to identify combinations of conditions that influenced current latrine coverage and consistent latrine use. In Cambodia, latrine coverage was highest in communities with active commune-level leaders rather than traditional Citation: Tribbe, J.; Zuin, V.; Delaire, leaders, and with leaders who used casual approaches for promoting latrine construction.

  • Detection of Influenza a Viruses from Environmental Lake and Pond Ice
    TITLE “DETECTION OF INFLUENZA A VIRUSES FROM ENVIRONMENTAL LAKE AND POND ICE” Zeynep A. Koçer A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2010 Committee: Scott O. Rogers, Advisor W. Robert Midden Graduate Faculty Representative John Castello George Bullerjahn Paul Morris ii ABSTRACT Scott O. Rogers, Advisor Environmental ice is an ideal matrix for the long-term protection of organisms due to the limitation of degradative processes. As a result of global climate change, some glaciers and polar ice fields are melting at rapid rates. This process releases viable microorganisms that have been embedded in the ice, sometimes for millions of years. We propose that viral pathogens have adapted to being entrapped in ice, such that they are capable of infecting naïve hosts after melting from the ice. Temporal gene flow, which has been termed genome recycling (Rogers et al., 2004), may allow pathogens to infect large host populations rapidly. Accordingly, we hypothesize that viable influenza A virions are preserved in lake and pond ice. Our main objective was to identify influenza A (H1-H16) from the ice of a few lakes and ponds in Ohio that have high numbers of migratory and local waterfowl visiting the sites. We developed a set of hemagglutinin subtype-specific primers for use in four multiplex RT-PCR reactions. Model studies were developed by seeding environmental lake water samples in vitro with influenza A viruses and subjecting the seeded water to five freeze-thaw cycles at -20oC and -80oC.

Weisolated an infuenza strain named A/Swine/Fujian/F1/2010 (H1N2) from a pig suspected to be infected with swine fu. Te results of electron microscopy, hemagglutination (HA) assay, hemagglutination inhibition (HI) assay, and whole genome sequencing analysis suggest that it was a reassortant virus of swine (H1N1 subtype), human (H3N2 subtype), and avian infuenza viruses. To further study the genetic evolution of A/Swine/Fujian/F1/2010 (H1N2), we cloned its whole genome fragments using RT-PCR and performed phylogenetic analysis on the eight genes. As a result, the nucleotide sequences of HA, NA, PB1, PA, PB2, NP, M, and NS gene are similar to those of A/Swine/Shanghai/1/2007(H1N2) with identity of 98.9%, 98.9%, 99.0%, 98.6%, 99.0%, 98.9%, 99.3%, and 99.3%, respectively.

  • Serological Methods in the Identification and Characterization of Viruses
    CHAPTER 4 Serological Methods in the Identification and Characterization of Viruses M. H. V. Van Regenmortel Laboratoire de Virologie Institut de Biologie Mo!eculaire et Cellulaire 67000 Strasbourg, France 1. INTRODUCTION The purpose of this chapter is to present an integrated view of the various serological techniques that have been used in virology. The accent will be placed on the principles that govern each type of test and on the general applicability of the different serological techniques in all fields of virus research. In recent years, advances in serological tech­ niques have sometimes been applied in only one area of virology, although they could have been equally useful to workers studying other groups of viruses. No doubt this stems from the host-oriented approach that has guided the compartmentation of virology into separate fields of specialization. When it comes to serological properties, however, the similarities between animal, insect, bacterial, and plant viruses are paramount. The same immunochemical principles govern the in vitro serological reactions of all viral antigens, and much of general interest can be learned from the findings obtained with each particular group of viruses. An attempt will be made here to emphasize the general validity of specific experimental procedures. A number of recent reviews restricted to the serology of particular groups of viruses are available 183 H. Fraenkel-Conrat et al.
