Genotyping of cryptosporidium isolates from chamelea gallina clams in Italy

Article Abstract:

The chamelea gallina clams that were accumulated from the mouth of the rivers beside the Adriatic Sea, which is located in the centre of Italy, were identified to anchor the cryptosporidium parvum, which serially forms a part of the zoonotic program. Cryptosporidium is segregated as a powerful tool since it helps to scrutinize the patterns of the program and the epidemiology of these microorganisms.

Detection of Cryptosporidium parvum in soil extracts

Article Abstract:

A study examining the precision and accuracy of flow cytometry with immunoglobulin M(IgM) and immunoglobulin G3(IgG3) applied to soil sample extracts, is presented. Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts are detected in soil, water, and animal waste by using fluorochrome-labeled immunoglobulins with fluorescent microscopy and flow cytometry.

Effects of combined water potential and temperature stresses on Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts

Article Abstract:

Increased water potential of soil can increase the rate of degradation of Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts at all temperatures. This is important because many animals infected with the parasite may excrete the oocysts on soil in watersheds that supply drinking water.
