| molecular characterization of the cryptosporidium cervine genotype from a sika deer (cervus nippon temminck) in zhengzhou, china and literature review. | a total of 124 fecal specimens were collected from four deer farms in zhengzhou city, china and examined for cryptosporidium by sheather's sugar flotation technique. cryptosporidim oocysts were detected in two 1-year-old sika deer, and one of the two specimens was genotyped by sequence and phylogenetic analyses of the small subunit ribosomal rna (rrna) (18s rrna), 70-kda heat shock protein (hsp70), actin, and cryptosporidium oocyst wall protein (cowp) genes. results obtained suggested that the c ... | 2008 | 18575889 |
