Zoonotic transmission of Cryptosporidium meleagridis on an organic Swedish farm.

International journal for parasitology - 1 Oct 2012

Silverlås Charlotte, Mattsson Jens G, Insulander Mona, Lebbad Marianne

Abstract excerpt

We believe that we present the first evidence of zoonotic transmission of the bird parasite, Cryptosporidium meleagridis. Despite being the third most common cause of human cryptosporidiosis, an identified zoonotic source has not been reported to date. We found Cryptosporidium oocysts in pigs, sheep/goats, hens and broiler chickens on a farm with suspected zoonotic transmission. By DNA analysis we identified C....
