Zoonotic Transmission Assessment of Cryptosporidium spp. in Close Human–Pet Environments in Yunnan Province, China [PDF]

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
This study revealed Cryptosporidium infection rates of 11.1% in dogs and 10.4% in cats in human–pet environments in Yunnan, China. Molecular evidence documents one case of pet‐to‐human transmission involving an immunocompromised elderly owner, suggesting vulnerable individuals face higher infection risks despite minimal transmission to immunocompetent ...

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.

Foot and Mouth Epidemic Reduces Cases of Human Cryptosporidiosis in Scotland. [PDF]

, 2003
In Scotland, rates of cryptosporidiosis infection in humans peak during the spring, a peak that is coincident with the peak in rates of infection in farm animals (during lambing and calving time).

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.

Commercial Simplex and Multiplex PCR Assays for the Detection of Intestinal Parasites Giardia intestinalis, Entamoeba spp., and Cryptosporidium spp.: Comparative Evaluation of Seven Commercial PCR Kits with Routine In-House Simplex PCR Assays

Microorganisms, 2021
Nowadays, many commercial kits allowing the detection of digestive parasites by DNA amplification methods have been developed, including simplex PCR assays (SimpPCRa) allowing the identification of a single parasite, and multiplex PCR assays (MultPCRa ...

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 ...

Disseminated Cryptosporidiosis in an Infant with Non-HIV Pediatric Immunodeficiency: First Case Report from Oman

Oman Medical Journal, 2021
Cryptosporidium is a rare but important pathogen, especially in children with immunodeficiency. Intestinal cryptosporidiosis is well described in immunocompetent and immunocompromised children, but respiratory and disseminated cryptosporidiosis in ...

Cryptosporidiosis [PDF]

Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 1988
Before 1982, only eight case reports of human cryptosporidiosis and fewer than 30 papers on Cryptosporidium spp. appeared in the biomedical literature. At that time, cryptosporidiosis was thought to be an infrequent infection in animals and rarely an opportunistic infection in humans. The concept of Cryptosporidium spp.
