Impacts of a changing earth on microbial dynamics and human health risks in the...
Weiskerger, Chelsea J.; Brandão, João; Ahmed, Warish; Aslan, Asli; Avolio, Lindsay; Badgley, Brian D.; Boehm, Alexandria B.; Edge, Thomas A.Although infectious disease risk from recreational exposure to waterborne pathogens has been an active area of research for decades, beach sand is a relatively unexplored habitat for the persistence of pathogens and fecal indicator bacteria (FIB). Beach sand, biofilms, and water all present unique advantages and challenges to pathogen introduction, growth, and persistence. These dynamics are further complicated...
Beach sand and the potential for infectious disease transmission: observations ...
Solo-Gabriele, Helena M.; Harwood, Valerie J.; Kay, David; Fujioka, Roger S.; Sadowsky, Michael J.; Whitman, Richard L.; Wither, Andrew; Caniça, Manuela"Recent studies suggest that sand can serve as a vehicle for exposure of humans to pathogens at beach sites, resulting in increased health risks. Sampling for microorganisms in sand should therefore be considered for inclusion in regulatory programmes aimed at protecting recreational beach users from infectious disease. Here, we review the literature on pathogen levels in beach sand, and their potential for aff...
