Geographic Linkage and Variation in<i>Cryptosporidium hominis</i>
1 Mar 2008
Abstract excerpt

To further investigate transmission, we conducted a case-control study and sequenced the GP60 locus from 115 isolates. Nine subtypes were identified; IbA10G2 predominated. Having a non-IbA10G2 subtype was significantly linked to recent travel outside Europe.
