Cryptosporidium from tortoises: Genetic characterisation, phylogeny and zoonotic implications.

Molecular and cellular probes - 1 Apr 2008

Traversa Donato, Iorio Raffaella, Otranto Domenico, Modrý David, Slapeta Jan

Abstract excerpt

Cryptosporidiosis is a disease caused by apicomplexan parasites of the genus Cryptosporidium, which affect the gastrointestinal tract of humans and animals worldwide. In the present study, Cryptosporidium isolates from captive European tortoises (Testudo graeca, Testudo hermanni and Testudo marginata) in Italy were genetically characterised using gene/s encoding Cryptosporidium oocyst wall protein (COWP) and/or...
