The field study was conducted in Maevatanana District of Madagascar. Seven water sources with human use were sampled, Keywords: with a total of 21 water samples collected. Snails were collected, and patients were examined by Eco-epidemiology EcoHealth ultrasound to determine the occurrence of schistosomiasis in the study area. fi One Health Results: One water source with active transmission was identi ed through the detection of S. mansoni Environment eDNA in the water and the intermediate host Biomphalaria pfeifferi collected from the same water source. Schistosomiasis People with clinical schistosomiasis were found in the area, reinforcing the findings. Africa Conclusions: The application of eDNA in eco-epidemiology enables the determination of hot spots and Madagascar safe spots in endemic areas, constituting an alternative ecological tool for follow-up and monitoring of eDNA control programs for schistosomiasis, and contributing information on water safety for improving the standard of living of the people in endemic areas. © 2018 The Author(s).

Introduction Schistosomiasis is considered endemic in Madagascar and it constitutes a major public health issue in 107 of the 114 districts of Schistosomiasis is a waterborne blood fluke infection, and over the country (Madagascar, 2016a). The north part and the west 90% of affected people live in the countries of Sub-Saharan Africa, slope of the island have high transmission of Schistosoma where there is poor access to clean water and sanitary facilities haematobium (urogenital form); the east coast, central highland, (Chitsulo et al., 2000; Adenowo et al., 2015). It is one of the leading and south part of Madagascar are endemic for Schistosoma mansoni causes of impaired health and socio-economic development in the (intestinal form) (Doumenge et al., 1987; Madagascar, 2016a,b). world, and the control measures currently in use are based on Maevatanana, one of three districts of Betsiboka Region, is large-scale preventive chemotherapy, as recommended by the particularly endemic for both intestinal and urogenital forms of World Health Organization (WHO) (WHO, 2012, 2013). schistosomiasis (Amat-Roze, 1978).

The TaqMan MGB probe (Thermo The prevention of schistosome infection of individuals can be Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) was designed as Sma-COI-P 0 0 directly related to the population’s awareness of safe water sources (5 -FAM-TTCAAATGTTCGATAATA-NFQ-MGB-3 ). The specificity of (Chitsulo et al., 2000; Adenowo et al., 2015; Fenwick and Jourdan, the primers/probe was then tested in silico in comparison with 2016). However, determining the safety of water is a difficult task. other organisms using BLAST. This has been done in ecological surveys by searching for To determine specificity, the newly designed real-time PCR intermediate hosts snails and performing shedding tests for assay (Sma-COI) was conducted to specifically distinguish S. cercaria at each collection spot to determine the risk of infection mansoni from S. japonicum and Schistosoma mekongi using DNA (Wolmarans et al., 2002; King et al., 2006). obtained from adult worms. Real-time PCR was performed with a The analysis of environmental DNA (eDNA) as a technique for StepOnePlus thermocycler (Thermo Fisher Scientific). The reaction the detection of specific organisms has been performed previously was performed in a 20-ml final volume containing 10 ml of in studies on the ecology, distribution, and phylogeny of cercozoa 2 Â Taqman Environmental Master Mix 2.0 (Thermo Fisher using soil samples (Bass and Cavalier-Smith, 2004). Furthermore, Scientific), 0.1 ml of AmpErase Uracil N-Glycosylase (Thermo Fisher to improve surveying methods, eDNA has been used to detect the Scientific), 2 ml of DNA template (including 100 pg of total DNA presence of amphibians and fish through the direct detection of derived from worms), 900 nM each of the Sma-COI-F/R primers, specific DNA in water samples (Ficetola et al., 2008; Minamoto and 125 nM of the Sma-COI-P probe. The PCR conditions were et al., 2012). More recently, the eDNA technique was successfully 2 min at 50 C and 10 min at 95 C as initial steps, followed by 55 applied for the detection of the liver fluke Opisthorchis viverrini and cycles of 15 s at 95 C and 60 s at 60 C. All reactions were its intermediate fish hosts in water of endemic areas (Hashizume conducted with three replications. et al., 2017). With regard to schistosomiasis, studies have been done for the detection of Schistosoma japonicum cercaria DNA in PCR and sequencing water samples (Hung and Remais, 2008; Worrell et al., 2011). In this study, we developed a real-time PCR detection system by PCR reactions were done as described previously in 20-ml designing species-specific short-amplicon primers and a probe volume reactions with SMA-COI-F and SMA-COI-R primers and targeting the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) using 2 ml of sample DNA as template. One positive control region of S. mansoni. After confirming the specificity and sensitivity (tissue-derived DNA) and a negative control were included in of the assay, it was possible to detect S. mansoni eDNA in an each batch of tests. The PCR was performed in a StepOnePlus endemic area of mixed infection in Madagascar, indicating that this thermocycler (Thermo Fisher Scientific) with the following system could be used as an alternative detection method in eco- conditions: 50 C for 2 min, followed by 95 C for 10 min and 55 epidemiology studies and surveillance in areas endemic for cycles of 95 C for 15 s, 60 C for 1 min. PCR for other species of schistosomiasis. Schistosoma was performed as described by Kato-Hayashi et al. (2010). After PCR, electrophoresis was performed at 100 V for Materials and methods 60 min using 2% agarose gel. The PCR products were purified and directly sequenced using an ABI3730XL sequencer (Applied Obtaining eDNA from water samples Biosystems, USA) at Macrogen Inc. (Korea) and at Dokkyo Medical University (Japan). Purification of eDNA was performed using the DNeasy Blood and Tissue Kit (Qiagen), as described previously (Uchii et al., 2016), Detection of eDNA in S. mansoni experimental infection water with some modifications. Briefly, water samples were filtered samples through glass fiber filter papers (GF/F, 0.7 mm; Whatman, UK) and fixed in 70% ethanol (Minamoto et al., 2016).
