Abstract excerpt
This study describes an approach for genotyping individual Cryptosporidium oocysts obtained from sewage. We isolated single immunofluorescent assay (IFA)-stained Cryptosporidium oocysts from sewage concentrate using glass capillary pipettes and inverted epifluorescence microscopy. Each isolated Cryptosporidium oocyst was analyzed by semi-nested PCR for the 18S rRNA gene and direct sequencing of the PCR products....
