| isolation of cryptosporidium andersoni kawatabi type in a slaughterhouse in the northern island of japan. | fecal samples were collected from 325 adult cattle and 108 pigs in a slaughterhouse in hokkaido, the northern island of japan. five adult cattle were found to be positive for oocysts of cryptopsoridium (1.5%). the oocysts were morphologically similar to those of cryptosporidium andersoni. the partial sequence of the 18s rrna gene of the isolate was 100% identical with that of the c. andersoni kawatabi strain. scid mice were infected after oral administration. based on the morphology of the oocys ... | 2005 | 15878239 |
| detection and species identification of cryptosporidium from taiwan feeding animals. | in this study, 107 fecal specimens were collected from 40 sampling sites in taiwan livestock and avian farms to test for cryptosporidium spp. oocysts. ten of 107 samples analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay showed the presence of cryptosporidium spp., among which 6 samples were simultaneously confirmed by immunofluorescence assay and polymerase chain reaction. nucleic acid sequencing of the 18s rrna gene identified 3 clusters of cryptosporidium spp. three cryptosporidium parvum isolates ... | 2008 | 18372647 |
| occurrence and molecular characterization of cryptosporidium spp. isolated from domestic animals in a rural area surrounding atlantic dry forest fragments in teodoro sampaio municipality, state of são paulo, brazil. | the aim of this study was to assess the occurrence of cryptosporidium in domestic animals in rural properties surrounding rain forest fragments within the municipality of teodoro sampaio, southeastern brazil. conventional sucrose flotation method followed by molecular characterization of the parasites by sequencing pcr products amplified from ssu rrna gene were used. stool samples were collected from domestic animals raised as pets and livestock in all rural properties surrounding three forest f ... | 2010 | 21184703 |
