The persistence of viruses in biofilms from water distribution systems
This research aimed to investigate whether water distribution system biofilms could act as a potential reservoir for viruses. Model water distribution systems were set up in the laboratory and biofilm formation was monitored. Two model viruses, bacteriophage lambda and poliovirus, were introduced in...
