Genome-targeted enrichment and sequencing of human-infecting <i>Cryptosporidium</i> spp.
2024-03-30
Abstract excerpt
Cryptosporidium spp. are parasites that cause severe illness in vulnerable human populations. Obtaining pure and sufficient Cryptosporidium DNA from clinical and environmental samples is a challenging task. Oocysts shed in available fecal samples can be limited in quantity, require purification (biased towards dominant strains), and yield limited DNA (<40 fg/oocyst). Here, we use updated genomic sequences from a...
