Environmental sampling using Moore swabs v2

Article scientifique 2025 Autre

Résumé

A protocol for the collection of environmental samples (sewage and wastewater) using Moore swabs and subsequent laboratory processing up to DNA extraction. This is part of a set of protocols for environmental surveillance of Salmonella Typhi. Bacteria in the wastewater are trapped in the Moore swab. Trapped bacteria are enriched during incubation in Universal Pre-Enrichment broth. The broth is then filtered under a vacuum to capture the bacteria on filter discs ready for DNA extraction. This protocol is adapted from the Moore swab protocol described in Liu et al (2021).
