Antibody responses to a Cryptosporidium parvum rCP15/60 vaccine [PDF]

, 2009
Cryptosporidium parvum is a zoonotic apicomplexa-protozoan pathogen that causes gastroenteritis and diarrhoea in mammals worldwide. The organism is transmitted by ingestion of oocysts, which are shed in faeces, and completes its lifecycle in a single ...
