Key result
Rainwater rinses mobilize up to ~66% of enteroviruses from soil, invalidating the poliovirus LSc model.
Population
Soil cores collected from an operating recharge basin on Long Island, tested with human enteroviruses.

Caution against poliovirus LSc as enterovirus model; hypothesis-generating for strain-specific soil and water risk assessments.
Soil adsorption and elution of enteroviruses is highly strain-dependent, suggesting that standard poliovirus models may not accurately predict the environmental behavior of other viruses.
Landry et al. (1979) studied this question. Treated sewage effluent or simulated rainwater rinse was evaluated on Adsorption and elution of human enteroviruses. Soil adsorption-elution behavior of enteroviruses is strain dependent, with rainwater rinses mobilizing 24 to 66% of one virus, indicating poliovirus strain LSc is an inappropriate model.
