Population genetics of Cryptosporidium parvum
Trends in Parasitology, 2004Among the apicomplexan parasites of medical interest, Cryptosporidium is the least studied. Consistent with other members of this phylum, the generally accepted life cycle of Cryptosporidium comprises a sexual phase during which gamete differentiation and fertilization occurs. This process can affect the population structure of this parasite because of

Gaseous disinfection of Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1996Purified oocysts of Cryptosporidium parvum suspended in approximately 400 microliters of phosphate-buffered saline or deionized water in microcentrifuge tubes were exposed at 21 to 23 degrees C for 24 h to a saturated atmosphere of ammonia, carbon monoxide, ethylene oxide, formaldehyde, or methyl bromide gas. Controls were exposed to air.

Interaction of Lectins with Cryptosporidium parvum
Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1993Cell surface carbohydrates from four clinical isolates of Cryptosporidium parvum were analyzed by agglutination assays using a battery of 20 highly purified lectins with affinity for receptor molecules containing N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (GlcNAc), N-acetyl-D-galactosamine, galactose, mannose, glucose, fucose, and N-acetyl-neuraminic acid.

Cryptosporidium Parvum Gene Discovery
1999Cryptosporidium parvum is a well-recognized cause of diarrhea in humans and animals throughout the world, and is associated with a substantial degree of morbidity and mortality in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). At the present time, there is no effective therapy for treating or preventing infection with C. parvum.

Studies on Cryopreservation of Cryptosporidium parvum
The Journal of Parasitology, 1991Neonatal BALB/c mice received oocysts or sporozoites of Cryptosporidium parvum pretreated by a variety of cryopreservation protocols. Histologic sections of infected and control mice were examined to determine if pretreated organisms established infection in the intestine. Sporozoites were inoculated rectally, oocysts orally.

Structural Analysis ofCryptosporidium parvum
Microscopy and Microanalysis, 2004Cryptosporidium parvum(Apicomplexa, formerly Sporozoa) is the causative agent of cryptosporidiosis, an enteric disease of substantial medical and veterinary importance.C. parvumshows a number of unique features that differ from the rest of the class of coccidea in which it is currently grouped taxonomically.

Cryptosporidium parvum: The Veterinary Perspective
2011Apicomplexan parasites of the genus Cryptosporidium are increasingly considered as pathogens of zoonotic and animal health impact. However, many questions related to important aspects such as epidemiology, pathogenesis, immunology and efficient control measures remain to be answered.

Pathogenesis of Cryptosporidium parvum infection.
Microbes and infection, 2000Cryptosporidium parvum can be regarded as a minimally invasive mucosal pathogen, since it invades surface epithelial cells that line the intestinal tract but does not invade deeper layers of the intestinal mucosa. Nonetheless, infection can be associated with diarrhea and marked mucosal inflammation.
