The present update gives a comprehensive review of worldwide waterborne parasitic
protozoan outbreaks that occurred and were published globally between January 2004 and …

Molecular tools have been developed to detect and differentiate Cryptosporidium at the
species/genotype and subtype levels. These tools have been increasingly used in …

The molecular characterisation of species and genotypes of Cryptosporidium and Giardia is
essential for accurately identifying organisms and assessing zoonotic transmission. Results …

The widespread usages of molecular epidemiological tools have improved the
understanding of cryptosporidiosis transmission. Much attention on zoonotic …

The present work compiles a review on drinking waterborne outbreaks, with the perspective
of production and distribution of microbiologically safe water, during 2000–2014. The …

A new species, Cryptosporidium ubiquitum, previously identified as the Cryptosporidium
cervine genotype and infrequently as the cervid, W4 or genotype 3 genotype, is described …

The role of dogs and cats in human cryptosporidiosis has been the focus of much attention.
Studies in which genotyping of Cryptospiridium oocysts in feces of dogs and cats have been …

The role of each transmission route in endemic areas is frequently unclear because of the
expensive nature of epidemiologic investigations and the inability to differentiate …

Cryptosporidiosis was first identified as a disease of veterinary, rather than human medical,
importance, and infection of farmed animals with different species of Cryptosporidium …

Water is the most commonly reported vehicle of transmission in Cryptosporidium outbreaks.
While mains drinking water quality is highly regulated in industrialised countries, treated …
