摘要

Monitoring viral loads in sewage can reflect the prevalence of infections within communities to a certain extent. Methods for concentrating and enriching viruses in sewage are also rapidly evolving. The magnetic bead method has been widely adopted for nucleic acid extraction due to its simplicity and high efficiency. In this study, we designed three pre-treatment procedures (T1: sedimentation for 30 min; T2: low-speed centrifugation at 2500×g for 5 min; T3: high-speed centrifugation at 8000×g for 5 min) to identify the optimal pre-treatment for enhancing viral nucleic acid concentration efficiency using the magnetic bead method. Spiked recovery tests were employed to compare the concentration efficiency of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in sewage between the magnetic bead method and the traditional polyethylene glycol (PEG) precipitation method. Real sewage samples were further used to evaluate both methods for enriching enveloped viruses (SARS-CoV-2, influenza virus) and non-enveloped viruses (Norovirus, Rotavirus, Adenovirus). Results demonstrated that low-speed centrifugation (T2) served as the optimal pre-treatment for the magnetic bead-based concentration. The high-throughput magnetic bead method achieved significantly higher recovery rates for SARS-CoV-2, Norovirus, and Adenovirus compared to PEG precipitation. Thus, the high-throughput magnetic bead method can be widely applied for the concentration and concentration of diverse viruses in sewage.
