Abstract excerpt
The accurate identification of Cryptosporidium (Protozoa: Apicomplexa) species and genotypes is central to the understanding of the transmission and to the diagnosis and control of cryptosporidiosis. In this study, we demonstrate the effectiveness of nonisotopic SSCP analysis of a approximately 300 bp region of the small subunit (pSSU) of ribosomal DNA for the specific identification of and delineation among 18...
