Establishment of TaqMan Probe-based Molecular Detection and Quantification of Cryptosporidium Species in Ghana: Cohort Study in School-aged Children

2026-05-07

Abstract excerpt

Background Cryptosporidiosis, caused by Cryptosporidium spp., causes diarrhoeal disease in both humans and animals globally. However, research and treatment for diarrhoeal disease in Africa are generally focused on viral and bacterial pathogens. We adopted quantitative PCR (qPCR) for improved identification of Cryptosporidium parasites from clinical and non-clinical samples in Ghana. Methodology In a cross-secti...
