Foodborne cryptosporidiosis [PDF]

International Journal for Parasitology, 2018
Foodborne illness, the majority of which is caused by enteric infectious agents, costs global economies billions of dollars each year. The protozoan parasite Cryptosporidium is particularly suited to foodborne transmission and is responsible for >8 million cases of foodborne illness annually.

Cryptosporidiosis: A global threat to human and animal health [PDF]

Open Veterinary Journal
Cryptosporidiosis is a significant zoonotic illness that infects the intestines of both people and animals. The protozoan parasite that causes this illness is a member of the genus Cryptosporidium, which is a eukaryote in the phylum Apicomplexa.

Minireview: Clinical cryptosporidiosis

Experimental Parasitology, 2010
Cryptosporidium has emerged as an important cause of diarrhoeal illness worldwide, especially amongst young children and patients with immune deficiencies. Usually presenting as a gastro-enteritis-like syndrome, disease ranges in seriousness from mild to severe and signs and symptoms depend on the site of infection, nutritional and immune status of the

Evaluation of Next-Generation Sequencing Applied to Cryptosporidium parvum and Cryptosporidium hominis Epidemiological Study

Pathogens, 2022
Background. Nowadays, most of the C. parvum and C. hominis epidemiological studies are based on gp60 gene subtyping using the Sanger sequencing (SgS) method. Unfortunately, SgS presents the limitation of being unable to detect mixed infections.

Comparative Performance of Eight PCR Methods to Detect Cryptosporidium Species

Pathogens, 2021
Diagnostic approaches based on PCR methods are increasingly used in the field of parasitology, particularly to detect Cryptosporidium. Consequently, many different PCR methods are available, both “in-house” and commercial methods.

Is Personal Protective Equipment Worth the Hassle? Annual Risk of Cryptosporidiosis to Dairy Farmers and How Personal Protective Equipment and Handwashing Can Mitigate It

Microorganisms, 2023
Cows are known carriers of Cryptosporidium parvum (C. parvum), a protozoa that can cause the gastrointestinal illness cryptosporidiosis in humans. Despite this potential exposure, dairy farmers tend to wear personal protective equipment (PPE) to protect ...
