The Evolution of Wastewater-Based Epidemiology

The Evolution of Wastewater-Based Epidemiology

Since the COVID-19 pandemic, the scope for wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) has increased significantly and requires increasingly rapid, versatile and accurate detection methods to monitor the spread of disease.


Quantitative PCR has long been the standard for pathogen RNA detection in wastewater, but this technique can lack sensitivity and the ability to identify multiple pathogen variants in sewage. Droplet Digital PCR (ddPCR) can provide highly sensitive, absolute quantification in a single-step process for faster, more cost-effective WBE monitoring.
